Robert Storm

Robert Storm has a diverse background in neurobiology research and scientific program management. ROBERT began their career as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Max Delbrück Center, where they focused on studying the transcription factor networks involved in neuronal fate determination in murine dorsal hindbrain sensory neurons. ROBERT then moved on to the Freie Universität Berlin, where they served as a Research Scientist and Graduate Program Manager in the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior. During this time, they researched the development of the avian forebrain and administered the Master's program "Neurobiology and Behavior."

Storm later joined Charité - University Medicine Berlin, Institute for Cell- and Neurobiology, Center for Anatomy as a Senior Research Scientist and Anatomy Instructor. Their work here focused on the development of the murine neocortex and the neuronal output of neocortical progenitor cells. ROBERT developed an in vitro model system to study and genetically label cortical progenitors, allowing for long-term confocal live imaging. ROBERT analyzed the timing and neuronal output of individual cortical progenitors and reconstructed their lineages.

Most recently, Storm has joined Molecular Devices as a European Application Scientist, specializing in imaging.

Robert Storm's education history begins in 1990 when they obtained their High School Diploma from Sitka High School in Alaska. From 1986 to 1993, they attended Rüeckert-Gymnasium Berlin and received their Abitur. In 1993, they enrolled in Freie Universität Berlin where they pursued a Master of Science in Biology, which they completed in 1999. During their time at Freie Universität Berlin, they also obtained a Minor in North America Studies from John F Kennedy Institute in 1999. Robert continued their educational journey at Freie Universität Berlin and earned a PhD (Dr. rer. nat.) in Cell/Cellular and Molecular Biology in 2003.
