Short presentation
I have a background in molecular and cellular biology, holding a PhD in biology with a specialization in environmental toxicology. I am currently a researcher in environmental epigenetics in Carlos Guerrero-Bosagna’s group at Uppsala University. I am deeply passionate about understanding how the environment influences phenotype. My research interests have always centered on environmental epigenetics and how early-life exposures can impact development and affect subsequent generations.

Research
I am a researcher in environmental epigenetics, exploring how factors such as chemical exposures and stress alter epigenetic marks and exert lasting, multi- and trans- generational effects on brain function and behavior. My work encompasses DNA methylation and RNA modifications, and small non-coding RNAs.
