Our Team
Marissa Maciej-Hulme
BSc MRes PhD
Marie Curie Fellow, Oslo Metropolitan University
Marissa is curious about proteoglycans and their multiple roles in biology. Her research aims to develop advanced tools and methods focused on proteoglycans to understand their structural details in relation to their function(s), illuminating their roles in human health and disease.
Milka Girmay Gebremichael
BSc Pharmacy
Milka is a Masters student in Pharmacy at OsloMet studying the interactions of Herceptin (Trastuzumab) with Her2 and proteoglycans.
Vebjørn Brændshøi

Collaborators
Professor, Oslo Metropolitan University
Niclas is a glycobiologist interested in N- and O-glycomics for human health, particularly of osteoarthritis. He is collaborating on the integration of GAGomics with N- and O-glycomics for multi-glycomic analyses from a single sample.
Professor, Soka University
Kiyoko is a computer scientist collaborating on the development of infomatics infrastructure to generate an online, open access database for proteoglycan structures.
Professor, University of Oslo
Kristian has a long standing interest in proteoglycans and the Golgi apparatus. He is collaborating on the development of precise proteoglycan structures to unpick their function(s).
