About Me.
Prior to pursuing a career in intellectual property law, Sarah studied genetics and also molecular medicine focusing on human and plant genetics, immunology, and stem cell research, especially stem cell aging. Her PhD thesis involved continued work in the field of onco-immunology, in particular on immune checkpoint blockade and the signaling pathway of the pattern recognition receptor RIG-I, and the genetic modification of this pathway using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing. Another important aspect of her work concerned the isolation and analysis of extracellular vesicles/exosomes from tumor cells.
