Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJennifer Marx is an R&D engineer and postdoctoral scientist with 11 years of experience translating molecular medicine into next-generation AAV gene therapies for hearing loss. Based at Hannover Medical School and recently joining MED-EL, she specializes in AAV capsid engineering and the intracellular infection biology of inner ear cells to improve delivery for inherited and acquired auditory disorders. Her background uniquely blends cell and gene therapy expertise (MSc, UCL; PhD work at MHH) with an engineering and industrial management degree, enabling her to navigate both lab discovery and commercialization pathways. She has hands-on experience building in vitro disease models and applying CRISPR tools from prior research training, and she mentors outreach programs teaching kids robotics and coding. Pragmatic and problem-focused—summed up on her GitHub as “I like to solve problems”—she aims to bridge academia and industry to bring cell and gene therapies to patients.
