Communications Intern

Laura Turchi

staff profile

Bio

I'm a Communications Intern, supporting Mia Cerfonteyn in the Communications team.

I did my PhD and postdoc in Grenoble, France, focusing on gene regulation and chromatin dynamics during Arabidopsis thaliana development.

I'm excited to use my research background to communicate science and make research more accessible to broader audiences.

During my time at The Sainsbury Laboratory a big part of my work is to share the rich diversity of stories within our research community.
