Mandy Obst

After training to be a biology lab technician at IHK Frankfurt am Main, Mandy joined the research groups of Professor Francis Stewart and Professor Konstantinos Anastassiadis at the TU Dresden’s Biotechnology Center. Her main focus in those labs was cell culture.

Mandy has worked with mESCs, hESCs, iPSCs, and NSCs. She has conducted gene targeting, CRISPR/Cas9, cell differentiation, and recombineering experiments, and screenings by PCR, qPCR, and Southern Blot.

“I am proud to be part of that international team that stands up for each other as well as for a great science,” Mandy says. “Every day at Dewpoint is a small adventure with exciting tasks and interesting conversations.”
