Victoria Arnesen

I am born and raised in Bergen. I completed my master’s degree in molecular biology in June 2018 with a project aimed at discovering the purpose of the class I PI3K catalytic subunit p110β in the nucleolus, in connection to ribosome production and tumorigenesis in endometrial cancer.

For my PhD project, I am taking part in a clinical trial for gliablastoma patients, and conducting research on a novel 14-bp deletion in the CSPG4 gene, where I hope to characterize the effect of the alteration on the NG2 proteoglycan.
