- Biography
Vivien Horvath completed her PhD in Biomedicine at Pompeu Fabra University, Barcelona. Currently, she is a senior postdoctoral researcher at Lund University/Lund Stem Cell Center. Her research focuses on the non-coding genome, particularly transposable elements, in aging and related neurodegenerative disorders. Vivien investigates how repetitive sequences and their epigenetic regulators, like DNA methylation, affect gene expression and disease progression, currently focusing on X-Linked dystonia-parkinsonism. In her research she uses nanopore sequencing to identify methylation patterns over transposable elements and to discover previously hidden non-coding insertions.
