Team

Dr Pawel Mikulski

Group leader

Fascinated by chromatin regulation & epigenetics.  Alumnus of: University of Warsaw (Bsc, Msc), Multi-institutional European network EpiTRAITs (PhD), John Innes Centre & University of Oxford (Postdoc). Supporting people to discover mechanisms of transcriptional memory at immune response genes. Working to receive Best Boss mug (merit-based) ☕

I like science, sports, travelling & reading. 

Msc Cita Hanif Muhlihah

PhD student

Cita joined us from Indonesia, being trained in Pharmacy and Drug Innovation at Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta, University of Utrecht and University College London. Cita is our expert in microscopy and primary cells, investigating the phenotypes of transcriptional memory in cancer. She's equally proficient in making delicious Asian food and spreading kindness - ask for recipes (for both)! 🍜

Dr Marko Tomljanovic

Postdoctoral researcher

Marko comes from sunny Croatia. Pharmacist and PhD by training, Marko previously studied the Polycomb repression pathways in anticancer treatments at  Ruđer Bošković Institute, Zagreb. Marko spearheads our efforts to understand transcriptional memory mechanisms on a protein level. He's go-to person when it comes to flow cytometry, biochemistry and proteomics. Carries a pair of sunglasses just in case the weather becomes Mediterranean 😎

Msc Dejan Rajkovski

PhD student

Marko moved to us from Macedonia, passing by Catalonia. Dejan trained in Biological and Biomedical Sciences in Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje and Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona.  Dejan puts his skill in gene expression assays and CRISPR to decipher regulatory modes of transcriptional memory. Avid hiker - will do Annapurna circuit solo for a story ⛰️
