Education
Graduated from Lomonosov Moscow State University (Faculty of Bioengineering and
Bioinformatics) in July 2010.
2010-2013. PhD program in the Institute of Gene Biology, Moscow, Russia.
Current research interests
Microbiology, molecular biology. Inhibitors of bacterial DNA gyrase and mechanism of
resistance to these inhibitors. Microcin B17. Thiazol-oxazol modified microcins: structure,
biosynthesis, mechanism of action.
Work experience
2009-2010 – graduation project conducted at the State Research Institute of Genetics and
Selection of Industrial Microorganisms («Genetika»), Moscow (under the direction of I.V.
Manukhov). Topic: «Studing of expression of gene ardB located on the conjugative
plasmid R64».
2010-2013– a PhD student at the Institute of Gene Biology RAS (Moscow), laboratory of
K.V. Severinov. Topics: 1) Studing of pentapeptide repeat protein QnrB. 2) Microcin-Blike compounds produced by Pseudomonas syringae: structure and species- specificity of
antibacterial action.
2013-present time –postdoc in the StPtSPU Bionano Institute headed by Dr. Mikhail
Khodorkovskiy.
March 2011 – assisted at the practical courses for the Rosnano corporation (Reverse
transcriptase-PCR analysis).
