Victor Olariu Ahnell, PhD

I conduct inter-disciplinary research using my background in Systems Biology to tackle various problems from stem cells research. 

My group closely collaborates with experimental labs for developing computational models, which can help answer questions from: commitment of T-cell progenitors, reprogramming of somatic cells to iPS cells or directly to  neurones. 

We also develop new modelling frameworks, which can be employed by various biology applications.

Personal aspects

I am the father of two boys. Through the years I developed a keen interest in renovating houses. My family and I are living in our second house that we completely renovated (I have some hands on skills but not in a wet lab - prefer theoretical work). I ride a big motorbike (Honda Valkyrie). Our pets are two french bulldogs (Linda and Bimka), 6 hens and a roster, an obstacle jumping horse (Orion), it is safe to say that we really embraced the countryside lifestyle.
