About Christina
My Journey
From a small town in Austria to New York City, my path has been shaped by an evolving curiosity to learn, grow, and create. What started in clinical radiology has led me through advanced imaging to where I am today: unraveling the mysteries of the human brain at the cellular level.
I’m a neuroscientist at Rockefeller University, studying what happens when diseases like Huntington’s and Alzheimer’s strike our brain cells. I develop techniques to isolate specific cell types from human brain tissue, searching for answers that might one day help people living with these conditions.
This space is about the human experience of doing science—the wonder that keeps me going, the questions that won’t let go, and what it means to dedicate your life to understanding the unknown.
Thanks for coming along.
Warmly,
Christina
