Molecular Biology and Chemistry

About me

I am Ukrainian and I have been living in Denmark for about 8 years. I have finished international high school IB (International Baccalaureate) at Nørre Gymnasium. Then I went to study at Roskilde University, where I received a Bachelor degree in Molecular Biology and Chemistry. Currently I am taking Masters in Biotechnology at DTU. I am mostly interested in Biomedical Microbiology and that is why I follow this study line. In my spare time I enjoy travelling, reading good books and spending time with my friends and family, especially by making “movies and dinner” times, etc. I am also going to a gym and doing other sports on regular basis.

About me

Originally from Poland, I moved to Denmark (through Ireland) two years ago. My undergrad studies were in Computer Science and now I'm in Systems Biology programme at DTU. My interests include teaching programming, biological networks and mathematical modelling. When not in front of a computer, I enjoy cooking, biking and squash.

About me

I am half Danish and half Kenyan and grew up on the exotic Island of Mombasa, Kenya. I moved to Denmark when I was 15 years old, at which point I attended an international high school, IB (International Baccalaureate). After receiving my IB diploma, I started studying Chemical Engineering at DTU because I believe that everything in life is essentially chemistry ;). Other than my passion for chemistry and laughing, I am an avid runner and love spending time with my friends or relaxing in a café with a good book.

About me

I’m half danish and half argentinian but I grew up in Denmark. I got my linguistic (have no idea how to write this in English!!) high school diploma in 2002 and after that I spent some years working, travelling and studying math, chemistry and physics so that I could start my studies at DTU. At this moment I’m pregnant and the baby is due the end of November. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my friends or my husband. I used to play soccer but now I’m only allowed to watch it on TV.

Biotechnology Engineering

About me

I enjoy life when I’m in the wild nature the mountains, on or below big waves. I am fascinated by unbelievable organisms, plants and animals and by the balance and complexity of nature and what we can learn from it. I find gratification by experiencing cultural diversity and new perspectives on life; through people I meet their story, traditions, music and food. I am trying to merge all this into my study to become a biological engineer. I have specialized in biorefinery and bioreactor design, and I’m going to work on Risø-DTU developing a sustainable biorefinery platform, for the future sustainable agricultural and industrial production by microorganism. I am a professional rescue diver, surf lifeguard and climbing instructor. I am fluent in English, French Spanish and Danish.

Biotechnology Engineering

About me

I am 100% Danish and I grew up north of Copenhagen. I study biotechnology at DTU, and at the moment I’m doing my master degree. I went to highschool in a town called Nyborg where I completed the international IB programme. I have lived in Spain several times, both with my family and alone, and I therefore speak fluent Spanish. I love the Spanish culture, especially the food and the night life. In my free time I like being with my friends, run, bike and play music. I also like to travel and experience the world which is why I spent a semester of my master degree in the US. Professionally, my interests are stem cells, immunology, cell biology and synthetic biology.

About me

I’m half Danish, half Chinese and was born in Copenhagen. At the age of 4, I moved to Hong Kong with my family, where we lived for 8 years before moving back to Denmark. After 3 years of primary school and 3 years of high school, I got my high school diploma in 2006 at Virum Gymanasium. I went on to study biochemistry at Copenhagen University and got my bachelors degree in 2009. I am currently halfway through the Masters Program in Systems Biology at DTU. My interests include immunology, bioinformatics and protein structure. In my spare time I enjoy playing computer games and spending time with my friends.
