About me

  • Dr. Marie-Stéphanie Aschtgen, Assistant Professor at the Department of Microbiology, Tumor and Cell Biology (MTC) at Karolinska Institutet (Birgitta
    Henriques-Normark Unit).

    Dr. Marie-Stéphanie Aschtgen’s research focuses on the bacterial molecular mechanisms underlying host-bacteria interactions. She defended her PhD in Microbiology on bacterial Type VI secretion systems in the Prof Eric Cascales lab (Marseille, France). She went for a post-doc with Prof. Edward Ruby and Prof. Margaret McFall-Ngai (Univ. of Wisconsin-Madison, USA) studying host-symbiont interactions in the elegant model of the Euprymna scolopes-Vibrio fischeri symbiosis. She then joined Prof. Birgitta Henriques-Normark’s lab at the Karolinska Institutet for a second post-doc focusing on host-pathogens mechanisms of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Klebsiella pneumoniae and became Assistant Professor in 2019.
