教育背景
Ph.D., Molecular Biology, University of Vienna, 2012
研究方向
After studying Agronomic Engineering at the University of Lisbon, Marisa pursued a Ph.D. in Molecular Biology from the University of Vienna, working with Ortrun Mittlesten Schied at the Gregor Mendel Institute. During her Ph.D., she investigated the effects of genotoxic stress and the roles of chromatin remodelers in DNA repair and homologous recombination responses in Arabidopsis. Following her Ph.D., she relocated to the Bay Area to work as a postdoc in the Lab of Sarah Hake at the Plant Gene Expression Center/UC Berkeley, driven by her fascination for messed-up developmental mutants. Her research focused on a maize mutant potentially linked to calcium channel abnormalities, resulting in severe growth, developmental, and organ patterning defects.
Marisa has been a part of the Bio-protocol community since 2013, initially as an author, then as a reviewer, associate editor, and editorial and social media consultant. She assumed the role of Managing Editor in June 2021.
