About Nalan Liv, PhD

Nalan Liv is Assistant Professor of Cell Biology, at Center for Molecular Medicine, University Medical Center Utrecht (UMCU). Nalan leads a cellular nanoimaging and endo-lysosomal biology research team, and coordinates the Cell Microscopy Core. She received her BSc. degree (2007) and her MSc. Degree (2009) in Molecular Biology and Bioengineering in Istanbul, Turkey. Her PhD work in Imaging Physics, Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands, involved development of an integrated correlative microscopy platform and its novel cellular imaging applications. After finishing her PhD, she joined the Cell Biology UMC Utrecht as a postdoc, and focused on developing correlative light and electron microscopy workflows to study endo-lysosomal biology. Her independent research line is dedicated to high-resolution understanding of intracellular structure-function relations in cancer cell biology, and she is awarded with multiple grants to study the role of lysosomes in carcinogenesis. Her research team develops innovative high-resolution microscopy approaches and utilizes a combination of molecular biology, live-cell fluorescence microscopy, and ultrastructural electron microscopy tools to resolve how intracellular organelle dynamics and interactions are rewired in cancer.
