Postdoctoral fellow discusses gene regulation in mammals, highlighting her transition to independent research.
Marlies Oomen is a Postdoctoral Fellow at Helmholtz Munich, Germany, in the laboratory of Maria-Elena Torres-Padilla. She is interested in how transposable elements are involved in gene regulation across different mammalian species. Marlies is one of the 2025 fellows on Development's Pathway to Independence programme, which aims to support postdocs in the transition towards establishing their own research groups. We met Marlies online to discuss her plans for her future lab and her hopes for the programme.
