PhD Defense – Viruses in the brain: Insights into viral neuropathology using stem cell-derived organotypic models
Pamela Capendale, PhD candidate at OrganoVIR Labs, will be defending the thesis: ‘Viruses in the brain: Insights into viral neuropathology using stem cell-derived organotypic models’ on December 19th, 2025.
This thesis explores virus-induced neuropathology using human stem cell-derived organotypic models that mimic the molecular and cellular complexity of the central nervous system (CNS). During her PhD trajectory, Pamela was supervised by Prof. Dr. Dasja Pajkrt, co-head of OrganoVIR Labs. Pamela’s co-promotors are Dr. Katja Wolthers and Dr. Adithya Sridhar.
The defense will take place on December 19th, 2025 at 12:30. The location of the defense is Aula – Oude Lutherse Kerk, Amsterdam.
