معرفی
Anna Bajur is a Researcher at Imperial College London’s Faculty of Natural Sciences, Department of Life Sciences. Her academic journey includes a Doctoral degree from the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (2013–2019) and a Master’s in Molecular Neurobiology from the International Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (2012–2013). She previously held a Research Associate position at King’s College London (2019–2024) before joining Imperial College.
Her research focuses on the mechanobiological aspects of immune cell interactions, particularly B cell activation and antigen recognition. She employs advanced techniques such as single-molecule measurements and DNA tension sensors to study mechanical forces in immune synapses, antigen mobility, and extracellular matrix effects. Key areas of interest include the role of actin cytoskeleton dynamics, ECM rigidity, and molecular adhesion in immune cell function.
Anna’s work bridges immunology, cell biology, and biophysics. Recent research highlights include investigations into how mechanical forces regulate antigen capture precision and how ECM properties influence immune synapse formation. She has contributed to understanding CD20 and CD169+ macrophage roles in B cell activation pathways.
No scientific awards or grants are explicitly listed. She is fluent in English, Polish, and German (reading/writing), with additional German comprehension skills. Her academic profile emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches to mechanotransduction in immune systems and developmental biology processes in Drosophila models.
