Maria Omsland
Field of work
Biomedical Laboraotry Scientist and Cell Biologist with PhD in Medical Cell Biology. Detection of cell death mechanisms and cell communication in blood and blood vessels. Earlier research focus has been on cell communication in various types of blood cancers, especially the cell communication tunneling nanotubes (TNT). Ongoing projects are "Ikkje-BCR::ABL1 dependent resistance in chronic myeloid leukemia" and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in myeloid leukemia and in association with cardiovascular side effects of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Prospective bachelor's project, master's project and PhD candidate. Focus on drawing in practical relevance to the biomedical laboratory technician profession and research relevance into the theory teaching.
