Miss Laura Wisniewski (PhD student)

Laura studied Biotechnology during her undergraduate research with the B-TU Senftenberg in Germany, doing research projects with Prof Charles Stiles at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Dr Claire Wells at King's College London. She did her MSc in Cancer at UCL and spent her research project with the Frankel lab before starting doctoral work at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Biomedicine in Muenster, Germany, where she learned the zebrafish fin regeneration model and investigated Notch, VEGF, and endoglin signalling during embryonic development and regeneration. She then moved to the Frankel lab for her PhD research work which is being generously funded by the British Heart Foundation. Laura is part of the UCL BHF Fundraising group, e.g. participating in Prudential50 in 2018, and also an active member of the Division of Medicine Athena SWAN team.
