Tania Bori Handschuh

PhD student

Born and raised in Barcelona, Spain, I moved to Germany where I obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Biotechnology in 2021, followed by a Master’s degree in Molecular Biotechnology at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) in 2024. During my master’s studies, my research focused on investigating the role of long non-coding RNAs in hiPSC-derived macrophages in the context of cardiovascular diseases.

In October 2024, I joined the Saur lab as a PhD candidate. My current research aims to analyze the function and dynamics of macrophages in PDAC using mouse models to investigate their role in tumor progression.
