Charlotte grew up and completed her studies in Geneva, Switzerland. She earned a BSc in Biology, followed by an MSc in Molecular Plant Sciences at Université de Genève (UNIGE). After graduating, she worked as a Research Technician in Plant Physiology at Universiteit Utrecht (UU) for 10 months. Although her previous research experience has focused primarily on plant sciences, she has always been eager to explore new fields. Motivated to broaden her scientific perspective and develop new experimental skills, she is joining the Vastenhouw lab as a technician for one year. She is excited to learn more about Zebrafish as a model organism and transcriptional regulation while contributing to the team's research.

In her free time, she enjoys reading, listening to podcasts, and trying out bold new hair colors whenever she gets bored with the old one.
