Matilda Sinkko has a diverse range of work experience in various research and project roles. Matilda started their career as a Childcare Worker in 2016, where they focused on supporting children's development and implementing teaching activities. Matilda then transitioned to the field of neuroscience, working as a Research Assistant at the University of Helsinki from 2017 to 2020, where they studied neurodegenerative disorders and gained experience in in vivo and in vitro methods, particularly in imaging techniques.
In 2020, Matilda worked as a Research Intern at King's College London, where they focused on identifying gene variants associated with ALS and designing guide RNAs for CRISPR editing. This work aimed to contribute to the development of personalized treatment options for ALS patients. Matilda also worked as a Master Thesis Worker at the University of Helsinki, studying neuromuscular junction formation and morphology in peripheral neuropathy.
Matilda's experience in genomics continued at the University of Helsinki in 2021, where they worked as a Researcher, modeling the functional impact of gene variants associated with neuropsychiatric disorders on neuronal development. Matilda conducted exploratory analysis and quality assessment of high-dimensional RNA sequence data using R software.
In the same year, Matilda had a role as a Covid-19 Contact Tracer at the City of Helsinki, where they interviewed individuals exposed to COVID-19, assessed symptoms, provided instructions for isolation or quarantine, and reported cases following confidentiality procedures.
Currently, Matilda is working at Aiforia Technologies as a Project Specialist, where they began their role in October 2021. Matilda later transitioned to the role of Project Owner in August 2022.
Overall, Matilda Sinkko's work experience incorporates their expertise in neuroscience, genomics, and project management in the field of healthcare and neurodegenerative disorders.
Matilda Sinkko completed their education history as follows:
From 2019 to 2021, Matilda attended the University of Helsinki, where they obtained a Master's degree in Translational Medicine.
Prior to that, from 2015 to 2019, they also attended the University of Helsinki, where they earned their Bachelor's degree in Molecular Bioscience.
Before their university studies, from 2010 to 2013, Matilda attended Ressun lukio, but the information about their degree and field of study is unknown.
In addition to their formal education, Matilda obtained certifications in Artificial Intelligence. In September 2021, they completed the "Elements of AI: Building AI" certification at Reaktor. Previously, in August 2021, they had obtained the "Elements of AI: Introduction to AI" certification, which was a collaboration between Reaktor and the University of Helsinki.
