In this episode, Chang Sun invited Dr. Martina Summer-Kutmon who works as an Assistant professor at the Department of Bioinformatics (BiGCaT) and the Maastricht Centre for Systems Biology (MaCSBio).
Martina shares her career journey and how she could combine her interest for the human body with her passion for mathematics and also technology.
Furthermore, her research focuses on network and pathway-based integrative systems biology to study the interaction between immune and metabolic systems. With Birgit Wouters and Tiffany Leung, Martina coordinated the Amrapali Zaveri Awards for Data Science which recognizes scholars for their special contributions to Data Science in honor of Amrapali.
