Biography
Dr Weberling (BSc & MSc Biochemistry, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany) was awarded a PhD Fellowship of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Horizon 2020 International Training Network ImageInLife to complete her PhD at the University of Cambridge, UK, focussing on mouse and human embryogenesis at peri- and early post-implantation stages.
Following her PhD, Dr Weberling was awarded a postdoctoral research fellowship at All Souls College, Oxford, to build up her independent research. She focusses on understanding early embryogenesis of non- or emerging model organisms of the amniote phylum. Gaining knowledge of embryogenesis in the different families across the amniote phylogenetic tree will enable to carry out cross-species comparative studies to understand the degree of conservation of key developmental processes.
She is currently hosted in the group of Prof Suzannah Williams.
Research Areas
Reptile Embryogenesis
We are investigating the embryogenesis of non-avian reptile species, the veiled chameleon (C. calyptratus) and the brown anole (A. sagrei), in collaboration with Prof Paul Trainor, Stowers Institute for Medical Research, Kansas City, and Prof Thom Sanger, Loyola University Chicago.
