Sara Strømmen Ravnestad


Job description

PhD Fellow in Immunology with the Immunology Research Group (IRG) at the Department of Medical Biology (IMB).

My PhD project, "Endonucleases and Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus", focuses on elucidating how key endonucleases and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) contribute to the development and persistence of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The aim is to improve our understanding of the disease mechanisms underlying SLE, identify potential biomarkers of disease activity, and explore new opportunities for targeted therapeutic interventions.
