Staff Scientist
Nuria Marti-Gutierrez, Ph.D.
I received my Master's degree in Clinical Biology and Reproduction from the University of Alicante and my Ph.D., under the direction of Dr. Mitalipov, from the University of Valencia. During my Ph.D. studies I investigated somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) in porcine and mitochondrial replacement in mouse and human. I joined Dr. Mitalipov's lab in February 2012. I'm currently a Senior Research Associate and the Embryology Manager of the Center for Embryonic Cell and Gene Therapy. My research projects are focused on germ line gene correction.
The indispensable crew
Ying Li
I received my B.S. from Shanghai Medical University in China and obtained my M.S. from Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA. I worked as a research assistant at the Vollum Institute at OHSU for two years before I joined the Mitalipov lab as a research assistant in 2008.
Crystal Van Dyken
I received my B.S. in Biology from the University of Idaho in 2009. I previously worked as a research technician in the Pharmacology Department at Washington State University. I joined the Mitalipov lab as a Research Assistant in 2013. I assist with many projects and my primary focuses are on embryology and molecular biology as well as maintaining the lab's IACUC protocol.
Daniel Frana
I received my B.S. in Genetics & Biotechnology from the University of Iowa. I worked as a lab tech at Integrated DNA Technology and later as a research assistant at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics before moving to Portland to join the Center for Embryonic Cell and Gene Therapy.
Daniel Eyberg
I earned my bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Biophysics from Oregon State University. While there, I completed my undergraduate thesis on synthetase engineering while working at the Genetic Code Expansion for All Center. After graduation, I moved to Portland and joined the Center for Embryonic Cell and Gene Therapy in 2023.
