About
Dr. Anna Maurer is a Michigan native, first-generation college student who transferred from Macomb Community College to the University of Michigan and completed her Bachelor of Science in Cellular and Molecular Biology in 2012. She completed her doctoral studies under Luk Vandenberghe on host and viral factors of adeno-associated viral (AAV) capsid assembly at Harvard Medical School in 2019. For her postdoctoral work, she studied cellular regulation of AAV-delivered DNA under Robert Tjian at UC Berkeley. In her independent research group, she will continue to study AAV vector biology through the lens of the host cell. Her passion for science is matched by her passion to increase diversity among biomedical researchers by raising awareness about research careers among community college students and mentoring them through transfer to a four-year institution to pursue STEM degree
