Gordana Wutz (Institute of Molecular Pathology, Vienne) - The role of cohesin regulators in shaping the genome

Gordana Wutz pursued her studies in molecular biology in Croatia. She  obtained her PhD at Vienna University, where she focused on researching rhinoviruses. During her postdoctoral studies, she relocated to Boston and joined the lab of E. Robertson at the Harvard university. There, she utilised mouse knockout technology to investigate MHC class II/peptide complexes. 
In her subsequent postdoctoral position, Gordana Wutz became a member of Jan-Michael Peters' laboratory at the IMP in Vienna. She remains there today as a dedicated research associate. Over the past decade, she has employed Hi-C technology to delve into the intricacies of chromatin organisation facilitated by cohesin.
