Marta Borowska, PhD

Postdoctoral Scholar, Stanford University

Marta grew up in Łódź and studied in Poland and Austria before moving to the University of Chicago on a year-long fellowship to complete her master's studies. She then joined the University of Chicago as a Ph.D. candidate to pair her interests in structural biology and immunology. She naturally gravitated to the area of unconventional immune recognition because its mechanisms are largely unknown. Now, she continues to use this foundation as a springboard for engineering designer approaches in immunotherapy at Stanford University.

Her long-term goal is to be an independent investigator running a research laboratory at an academic institute. Marta is broadly interested in complex immune signaling and aims to develop protein engineering approaches to control and modulate them. She enjoys playing chess, exploring science through art, and is a proud member of the LBGTQ+ community.
