Haapaniemi Group team members

Welcome to new group members

In September, four new team members joined our group!

A warm welcome to Oline Rio, Anna Komisarczuk, Shiva Dahal-Koirala and Hans Christian Erichsen! We’re super excited to get to know and start working with our new colleagues! 😊

Our two new Senior Scientists Anna and Shiva will be working on the optimisation and evaluation of the prime editing system (pegRNA) in cell lines, as well as working with the CRISPR gene editing platform for STAT1 GOF disease, respectively.

Oline is our newest PhD student to join the group, and her main project involves large-scale CRISPR guide screening for gene editing of primary immunodeficiency disorders with different patient-specific mutations.

Hans Christian is an MD consultant in paediatric immunodeficiency. 

Welcome to the group! 😊D
