Kinga finished her undergraduate studies at Adam Mickiewicz University in Pozna\u0144. She then did her PhD as well as a short postdoc in the field of Chromatin and Epigenetics at the Max-Planck-Institute in Freiburg, Germany. After that she moved to the University of Oxford supported by a Marie Sk\u0142odowska-Curie Fellowship. In Oxford, Kinga started studying the links between transcription termination and RNA processing, and became fascinated by gene ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After 13 years abroad, Kinga returned to Pozna\u0144 to set up her own research group in October 2019. Her team is generously supported by NAWA Polish Returns, NCN SONATA BIS, EMBO Installation Grant and ERC Starting and Proof of Concept Grants. Her lab\u2019s aim is to integrate different levels of gene expression regulation focusing on gene ends. They study the basic mechanisms of when and how transcription stops (terminates) and how this contributes to disease, particularly cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
