Christos Kyprianou

A published stem-cell and developmental biologist with multiple years of research experience seeking employment in pharma or biotech industry.

• Experienced in conducting screens for drug discovery in bone marrow damage and proficient in leveraging cutting-edge organ-on-chip technology for drug validation.
• Passionate about bridging the gap between microscopists and non-experts, I successfully developed a website and community to foster communication in the scientific community.
• With a track record of delivering impactful insights and solutions, I bring a unique combination of scientific expertise and project management skills.

Postdoctoral research in hematopoietic stem cell biology and bone-marrow-on-a-chip. Disease modeling for hematopoietic blood disorders via lentiviral and transposon transposon-based methods. Use of CRISPR Cas9 editing for knock-in and knock-out in primary cells. Assay development for drug screens in rare blood diseases. Platform development for therapeutic discovery in bone marrow radiation injury.

PhD research in discovery and mechanistic insight of novel morphogenetic processes in early mammalian embryo development. Involved in pilot experiments that led to the development of integrated embryo models (formerly known as synthetic or stem cell-based embryos).mitotic regulation during germ band extension in Drosophila models and

Other work included work on mitotic regulation during germ band extension in Drosophila models as well as mechanosensation in the developing Xenopus embryo.
