"Hello, my name is Monika Kijanska and I have recently started an internship at InSphero. I hold a Ph.D. in biochemistry from ETH Zürich and have several years of research experience in applying cellular and animal models to study cell biology and tissue regeneration. I look forward to exploring the potential and a wide variety of applications of 3D microtissues and to working with the dynamic InSphero team."
