We are thrilled to welcome Ted Lindström to our Doctoral Network! He will work on the DC03 project in Petra Schwille’s lab.
The project aims to engineer spatially controllable protein condensates capable of nucleating cytoskeletal filaments and exerting forces on membranes from within GUVs. Engineering such condensates will open up new avenues for generating internal forces to support the division of synthetic cells, and in organizing other higher order biological functions in GUV model systems.
Ted holds two master’s degrees from Lund University: one in molecular biology and one in bioinformatics. His combined masters thesis was in de-novo protein design, with the aim of designing a metamorphic protein. Before joining our MSCA doctoral network, Ted also worked as a laboratory technician in a vaccine development project, and as a technician at the Skåne University hospital NGS facilty.
Welcome to our Doctoral Network, Ted!
