Jan Klajnert, MSc

He joined the Computational Genomics Group (CGG) in 2024 in the role of Technical Specialist. Jan Klajnert supports the CGG team in the NDS project, and is involved in research on improving the protocol for processing paraffin-embedded samples and SHARE-seq. In science, he is interested in learning new molecular biology techniques. Jan Klajnert plans to start a PhD on Microbiome Analysis, under the supervision of Dr. Marcin Tabaka.

Jan’s MSc thesis was devoted to the dynamic regulation of the oncogene amplicons number in primary in vitro cultures of glioblastoma cells. Over the following years, he participated in commercial projects aimed at innovative approaches to isolating bacteria from animal samples (with particular emphasis on aquatic pathogens), and developing diagnostic processes based on biochemical and genetic techniques. He worked 4 years at Proteon Pharmaceuticals.

After work, Jan likes to relax by playing strategy games, he is also interested in developing his knowledge of physics.
