Marsia Gustiananda

Biography

 In her initial training as an analyst in senior high school she gained proficiency in chemistry. She advanced her chemical knowledge in her undergraduate BSc study, and in her final year project under Dr. Saifudin Noer extended it to biochemistry and molecular biology. Her thesis work was published as a paper in the university journal. During her PhD, under Prof. Gready at ANU, She advanced her biochemical experience, learning peptide/protein science and mastering biophysical techniques to study prion protein repeat (PrP) peptides. Publication in major international journals (FEBS Letters and Biophys J) resulted. She further developed her biochemistry and molecular biology skills in research on yeast mutant resistance to atovaquone at Eijkman Institute for Molecular Biology, before joining Prof. Canters’ group at Leiden Institute of Chemistry (Netherlands) as a postdoctoral fellow where she developed a fluorescence-based histamine and cholesterol biosensor.
