BIOGRAPHY

Julia obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from Lund University in 2016. From there she went to study a master’s degree in Environmental Chemistry at University of Copenhagen. She started working with microfluidics duringher  studies at University of Copenhagen where her master thesis project was about developing a platform to study endocrine disrupting compounds on a microfluidics chip. She is currently working on a PhD project regarding evolution of cancer heterogeneity and drug resistance using droplet based microfluidics.
