Angelika Christ is Facility Manager of the IMB Sequencing Facility, where she leads a team of sequencing and bioinformatition specialists, producing high-quality sequencing libraries and next-generation sequencing data.
Angelika and her team help find researchers the best approach to their sequencing projects — ranging from agriculture, to drug development and medical research — and ensure the best outcomes.
Angelika has 13 years of commercial and research laboratory experience. She has worked in the field of next-generation sequencing since 2010 on various technology platforms and applications.
Angelika holds a Dipl.-Ing (FH) (equivalent to masters degree) in Biochemistry from the Mannheim University of Applied Sciences in Germany and a brings experience in organic chemistry and peptide chemistry as well as cell culture and assay development to her work at the IMB Sequencing Facility.
