معرفی
Anna Sherwood is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biology at the University of Copenhagen, specializing in Computational and RNA Biology. She holds a PhD in Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology from Ohio State University (awarded 2015), where her thesis focused on T-box riboswitch gene regulation in Actinobacteria.
Her research bridges RNA biology, virology, and plant genetics, with emphasis on RNA modifications (e.g., m6A), viral RNA mechanisms (HCV), spliceosome dynamics, and riboswitch-mediated gene regulation. She employs cutting-edge methods like nanopore direct RNA sequencing and computational genomics.
Publications (2016–2023) reveal consistent themes: RNA epitranscriptomics in plants/viruses, spliceosomal regulation, and evolutionary genetics of crops. Noteworthy articles include a 2023 Nature study on HCV RNA capping and a 2022 Nature Communications paper on yam chromosome evolution.
