O autorze

Dr. Marketa J. Zvelebil obtained her PhD at Birkbeck College, University of London, under the supervision of Dr. Michael Sternberg, then worked for 2 years with Dr. Sternberg at the Imperial Cancer Research Fund (now Cancer Research UK). She then joined Professor Janet Thornton at her newly created Biomolecular Structure and Modelling Group at University College London, where she worked for 3 years before moving to the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research to serve as group leader in Bio- and Proteoinformatics. She holds a lectureship position at University College London. Her current research involves analytical and structural studies of domains involved in signalling, protein modeling, and drug/ligand binding and design. Her latest interest is in the use of systems biology to model and analyze various signalling pathways.
