Top School
Sofia Lundqvist is a research-focused bioengineer and medical biotechnology master’s student at KTH with eight years of cross-disciplinary experience spanning genomics, sequencing process engineering, and student mentorship. She currently contributes to SciLifeLab's National Genomics Infrastructure and previously advanced DiMeLo-seq protocols at UC Berkeley, combining hands-on wet-lab skills (cell culture, pipetting, nanopore sequencing) with data analysis using Linux, GitHub, AWS and the DiMeLo package. Sofia has translated lab findings into operational improvements—at Element Biosciences she optimized sequencing workflows saving substantial costs and increasing throughput. She also brings leadership in outreach and student advising, having organized large events, mentored teams, and led philanthropic campaigns that raised significant funds. An active full-stack contributor to the prominent nf-core website, she’s comfortable bridging documentation, front-end layout work, and merge-conflict resolution in open-source projects. Sofia pairs rigorous experimental practice with clear science communication and a track record of turning technical work into measurable impact.
