Christina is a doctoral clinical fellow in the Genome Function Lab at the Francis Crick Institute, where she develops prime editing-based high-throughput methods to investigate the functional impact of genetic variants, with a focus on non-coding regions. She previously earned her medical degree from the University of Göttingen and conducted research at Rockefeller University on genetic drivers of cancer metastasis. She will co-present a recently established prime editing variant screening platform in haploid human cells alongside Michael Herger.
