Florence Stoffel

Résumé

Florence Stoffel was born in Zurich but completed her primary, secondary and high school education in Washington D.C. Berlin and Paris. She then moved to the UK to complete her Bachelors Degree in Chemistry with Biomedicine at King's College London. After her second year, she obtained a PLuS Alliance Fellowship in the Aldous Group, where she studied various electrochemical systems for the development of the "Thermogalvanic Brick" prototype. A year later she joined the Müller Group as an Undergraduate Research Fellow. During her time there she investigated the function of deamidation on phase-separating properties of Tral and DDX4 proteins.
After completion of her Bachelors, she moved back to Switzerland to begin her Masters in Molecular and Biological Chemistry at EPFL. In her third semester she moved to Zurich to complete a 6 month internship at Medtech Startup company Lumendo AG, where she worked both as a synthetic chemist and a molecular biologist. Finally, she opted to stay in Zurich for her Master Thesis as a Member of the Grützmacher Laboratory.
