Neuroscientist | Dr. rer. nat. | Investigating mitochondrial dynamics in the brain and their role in cued and contextual fear

[Anna Huber @AnnaTHuber]

I am thrilled to announce that I will support my PhD lab, the AG Kerkhoff, at the University Hospital Regensburg for the next months in their research on the evolution of the nervous system.

I will always remember the day of my defense as one of the most beautiful days in my life because of all the people who celebrated with me!
Now it's time for me to continue my path in academia as a postdoc, so stay tuned for the next chapters of my life as a neuroscientist. (6/6)

On May 20, 2025, I successfully defended my doctoral thesis in the field of neurobiology on the role of mitochondrial dynamics in fear after four and a half years of hard work. (1/6)

GRK2174 mito enthusiasts @AnnaTHuber and @IselineCardon participated in the
Cell Symposia "Multifaceted Mitochondria" and presented their respective research on the protein mitoSPIRE1 and mitochondrial dysfunctions in depression

I am so grateful that I got the opportunity to present my ongoing PhD work at the Satellite Event of the @FENSorg Forum 2022 "From Glia Cell Functions to Brain Dysfunctions: Understanding the Cellular Roots of Brain Disorders"!

A great start for our #grksummerschool!
A huge thank you to our amazing guest speakers @sjo09 and Dr.Mazahir T. Hasan. No better way to begin celebrating great research and learning for a whole week with a cool selfie. 🎉
