About

Dr. Katerina Naydenova is a career development fellow in the group of Felix Randow at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, UK. She completed her PhD with Chris Russo also at the MRC LMB, where she worked on the development of new specimen supports for cryoEM and on improving microscope technology. Now, she is applying cryo-EM to study the innate immune response to bacterial infections.
