个人简介

Irina graduated from University of Sofia, Bulgaria, and did her PhD at the Institute of Cell Biology, ETH Zurich, Switzerland, with Dr Jose M. Sogo. She joined Richard Meehan's laboratory at the University of Edinburgh in 1997 as a postdoctoral scientist and in 2002 became a Carcer Research UK Senior Research Fellow and established her lab at the School of Biomedical Sciences. In 2004, she joined the Wellcome Trust Centre for Cell Biology and became University Reader in 2012. Irina has been studying the role of chromatin and DNA methylation in epigenetic regulation of gene expression since she started her PhD. When she is not in the lab, Irina plays tennis or hikes in the mountains.
