Heidi Klumpe is a postdoctoral researcher with nine years of interdisciplinary experience at the intersection of quantitative biology, engineering, and science communication. Trained as a Ph.D. chemical engineer at Caltech, she developed experimental and modeling approaches to decode combinatorial signaling in the BMP pathway, linking receptor-level changes to emergent tissue behaviors. She has continued this trajectory through postdoctoral work at Boston University and AMOLF, collaborating with leaders in systems biology and biophysics. Beyond the bench, Heidi produces and hosts a science storytelling podcast and edits articles for Caltech Letters, demonstrating a rare blend of technical rigor and public-facing communication. Based in the Netherlands, she brings hands-on expertise in lab automation, flow cytometry, and ODE-based modeling coupled with a humanities background in world literature that informs her science outreach.
