معرفی
Sonja Strunz is a researcher at the Department of Systems Biology and Bioinformatics, affiliated with the Faculty of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering at the University of Rostock. Her work focuses on radiation biodosimetry and biomarker discovery through transcriptomic analysis of radiation-exposed human peripheral blood lymphocytes.
- Doctorate in Computer Science (2007-2014), University of Rostock
- Masters in Bioinformatics (2000-2007), University of Tübingen (inferred)
Her research investigates radiation-induced transcriptional changes, dose-dependent gene expression patterns, and development of computational frameworks for radiation dose prediction. She has contributed to understanding radiation's effects on apoptosis, DNA damage, and cell-cycle regulation through bioinformatic analysis.
Analysis of her publications reveals expertise in radiation biology, transcriptomics, and systems modeling. Her work combines p-value/fold-change methods with network approaches to identify robust gene signatures for dose estimation and develops computational workflows for molecular biodosimetry applications.
She maintains collaborations with institutions including Forschungszentrum Jülich and University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, supported by funding from Germany's Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF) and Federal Ministry for the Environment.
