Lisa Kammer
Bio:
I am currently enrolled in the BSc Biotechnology program at the University of Applied Sciences Mannheim, Germany. After discovering my interest in cell biology and the field of regenerative medicine during my studies, I am especially happy to get the chance to get an insight on the research performed at the Rossi Laboratory over the summer. In the lab I am mostly supporting Dr. Marine Theret in understanding the role of the TGF-β signaling pathway in the fate of fibro-adipogenic progenitor cells. Because FAP’s are shown to be adipogenic precursors, I am specifically interested in the role of the TGF β signaling pathway on FAP’s adipogenesis.
After getting my degree I am planning on applying for the MSc program Molecular Biosciencesof the University of Heidelberg to later on obtain a Ph.D degree.
I am sure that the rich experience that I have been exposed to in the Rossi Lab and in Vancouver will help me achieve my goal of performing innovating research that can be used to better the welfare of people such as patients and non-patients.
Personal Summary:
One of my greatest passion besides science is music. I play the accordion for over 12 years and I really love playing in orchestras or just for myself, especially the work of Vivaldi and Bach. I also love spending my free time outdoors, exploring Vancouver and all of BC. Going hiking and just appreciate the amazing views from every peak. I love to try and learn new things, that’s why I am currently trying to learn rock climbing during my stay in Vancouver.
