I did my bachelor's degree in molecular biology at the University of Besançon, France. I majored in biochemistry and physiology. Thanks to an internship during the bachelor where I worked on rare genetic diseases, I became aware of the power of computer science in understanding biological patterns and I therefore joined the Master of MLS-Bioinformatics at UNIL. Having recently defended my master's thesis in the laboratory of Pr. Olivier Delaneau under the supervision of Diogo Ribeiro, I worked on the regulation of gene expression by enhancers at the single cell level. I am now continuing my research in the same lab as an intern, this time exploring enhancers co-activity

Dr. Aisima Chatzi Souleiman
|
I received my BSc in Chemical and Biological Engineering in 2015 from Koc University in Istanbul, Turkey. Shortly after my graduation I started my PhD studies in the same department. My PhD research was based on finding allosteric communication networks, detecting information transmitter-receiver relationships between residue pairs in proteins and nanobody modeling with computational methods. After receiving my PhD degree in 2019 I started my postdoc at Barth Lab, EPFL, in February 2020. In my postdoc, I studied reprogramming and modeling signaling properties in de-novo proteins by employing molecular dynamics and normal mode analysis.

I am 23 years old, and I did my bachelor and my master at the University of Lausanne. I defended my master thesis "In silico breeding of real genomes" at the beginning of February. And I will now work 3 more months in Olivier Delaneau's lab on this subject to write an article and produce a package.

EMBO Workshop
20 – 22 May 2022 in Rimini, Italy
Organized by Professors Giovanni Ciriello and Luca Magnani, the EMBO Workshop will bring together an interdisciplinary community of scientists with the goal of facilitating discussion and collaborations around genetic and non-genetic mechanisms of cancer evolution. The primary objective is to expand the current genetic-centric view with a mechanistic perspective centred around transcriptional and epigenetic alterations.
