Lisa has joined the lab recently as a Postdoctoral Fellow. She comes from Sweden, where she did both her bachelor’s and master’s in engineering physics and applied physics. She recently obtained her PhD at UC Santa Barbara, where she worked on cellular stress response in cancer progression and mechanical characterization across scales. In the Petridou group, Lisa wants to understand how cells undergo abrupt behavioral changes driving tissue phase transitions in killifish morphogenesis by bridging her knowledge in physics, materials, and biology. Welcome to the lab, Lisa!
