s.antonova@nki.nl Tineke LenstraAfter completing my MSc education in Molecular and cellular life sciences (Utrecht University), I remained in Utrecht to conduct my doctoral research in the lab of Marc Timmers and under the co-supervision of Albert Heck. During this time I extensively employed quantitative proteomics to investigate the structure, stability and formation dynamics of a central eukaryotic transcription complex, TFIID.
I joined the lab of Tineke Lenstra in order to combine my previous experiences with the single-molecule imaging expertise of the lab and to investigate further the molecular rules and mechanisms of transcription initiation and regulation in eukaryotes.
