Head of Molecular Genetics , MLL Munich Leukemia Laboratory
Manja is responsible for R&D with emphasis on NGS in leukemia diagnostics, especially on the ongoing 5,000 whole genomes project aimed at a better understanding of leukemia's genetics. She studied biology at the Universities of Tubingen and Munich with focus on human genetics, immunology, and bioinformatics. She received her Master of Science in Biology from the Ludwig-Maximilians-University in Munich and her PhD in collaboration with the Helmholtz Center Munich working on gene regulation within the architecture of the cell nucleus. After her post-doctorate, she moved to the field of hematology as a scientist in the department of molecular genetics at MLL. Besides leukemia diagnostics, her scientific work focuses on mutational patterns and their prognostic impact within different leukemia entities. She has published and contributed to more than 50 scientific papers in hematology in the last seven years. In combination with her MBA in Health Care Management, the aim of her work is also to improve diagnostic and prognostic work to optimize routine diagnostic approaches for patients with leukemia or lymphoma.
