We are happy to let you know, that Agrisera Team has new members on board.
Annika
Annika Nordstrand holds an MSc in Molecular Biology and a PhD in Oncology from Umeå University. She has over ten years of laboratory experience from research mainly targeted at understanding the importance of the tumor microenvironment in prostate cancer bone metastases. Her work has involved both development of new in vitro models and treatment experiments in different in vivo models, as well as establishment of cell cultures directly from patient tumors. She has experience in several techniques involving antibodies, such as western blot, ELISA, and immunohistochemistry. At Agrisera she is going to work with sales support. In her spare time she loves to do creative things and spend time with family and friends.
Caroline
Caroline Zetterström has a Master of Science in Biotechnology and a PhD in Chemistry from Umeå University. During her PhD the research focused on development of alternatives to antibiotics in gram-negative bacteria by inhibiting their virulence systems, their ability to cause disease. She has a long experience of lab work, with a variety of chemical and microbiological techniques e.g. western blot, cell culturing, organic synthesis, cloning, protein expression and purification. She has done click chemistry assays on live bacteria in a microfluid plate underneath the spinning disc confocal microscope. At Agrisera she is going to work with antibody purification, QC and product development.
In her free time she likes to be with her family out in the nature and sew clothing for herself.
Edith
Edith Kalén holds a degree in engineering science within the field of biotechnology, obtained at Umeå University. She did her master’s degree in plant physiology at Umeå Plant Science Centre (UPSC), with prof. Stefan Jansson and Prof. Laszlo Bako. She obtained practical and theoretical knowledge in areas such as microbiology, functional genomics, gene expression and genetics. Edith also has a background in scientific writing and graphic design, and is involved in preparation of Agrisera marketing materials and conference attendance. You may meet her soon as she will be attending events such as the 30th International Conference on Arabidopsis Research (ICAR2019) in Wuhan, China, as well as Plant Biology (PB19) in San José, US.
In her spare time, Edith enjoys spending time in nature and attending various cultural events.
