Katarzyna Gawlik

Katarzyna Gawlik has a diverse work experience in the field of biological research and development. Katarzyna has worked at various companies and research institutes, applying their expertise in molecular biology and genetics.

Katarzyna'smost recent position was as a Scientist II, R&D Applications at Agena Bioscience, where they performed feasibility studies and characterized iPLEX chemistries for allelic discrimination and genotyping.

Prior to that, they were an R&D Scientist at Prescient Medicine, where they designed and optimized assay chemistry and software for Autogenomics INFINITI platforms. Katarzyna also provided support for FDA submissions and was involved in manufacturing process and technology improvements.

Katarzyna also worked as an R&D Scientist at AutoGenomics, where they developed and validated genetic tests for age-related macular degeneration and respiratory bacterial panels. Katarzyna also developed a class prediction algorithm for AMD risk assessment and prepared patient reports.

Before they joined AutoGenomics, they worked as a Research Associate at The Scripps Research Institute, where they investigated the molecular mechanisms of HCV replication and infectious particle formation.

Katarzyna also has experience as a Postdoctoral Associate at Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute, where they studied furin and related proprotein convertases, and as a Graduate Research Assistant at the University of Wroclaw, Poland, where they described yeast as a new source of protein inhibitors of papain and analyzed inhibitory activity against papain in different yeast strains.

Overall, Katarzyna Gawlik has demonstrated a strong background in research and development, with specific expertise in molecular biology, genetic testing, and assay development.

Katarzyna Gawlik's education history begins with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from the University of Wroclaw, Institute of Microbiology and Genetics, in Poland, which they obtained from 1995 to 1998. Katarzyna then pursued a Master's degree in Biology, specializing in Microbiology, from the same institute, which they completed from 1998 to 2000. Katarzyna continued their academic journey by pursuing a Ph.D. in Biological Sciences with a focus on Microbiology at the University of Wroclaw, Institute of Microbiology and Genetics, from 2000 to 2005. Katarzyna'slatest educational pursuit was in Project Management at the San Diego College of Continuing Education, where they studied from 2017 to 2018.
