Anna received her Diploma (M. Sc. Eng., Hons) in Biotechnology from the Faculty of Chemistry at the Wrocław University of Science and Technology. To finalize her Diploma research on novel inhibitors of proteins involved in tumour angiogenesis, she moved to the Biochemistry Department of the National University of Ireland in Galway. There, she proceeded to study DNA damage responses to chemotherapeutics for a Ph.D. in the laboratory of Michael Carty.
For her post-doctoral studies, Anna joint the group of Agnieszka Chacinska in the International Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology in Warsaw where she actively participated in pioneering zebrafish research in Poland for a project that focused on mitochondrial biogenesis in collaboration with the group of Didier Stainier at the Max Planck Institute for Heart and Lung Research in Bad Nauheim. Anna joint our group in 2015 and is involved in on a plethora of collaborative, proteomics–based projects as well as developing techniques for functional membrane proteomics.
