Kratek življenjepis

Asist. asist. razisk. dr. Miša Marušič je leta 2016 zaključila študij strukturne in funkcionalne biologije na Biotehniški fakulteti v Ljubljani. Po magisteriju je z izpopolnjevanjem skozi pedagoško-andragoško izobraževanje na Pedagoški fakulteti v Mariboru osvojila temeljna znanja in kompetence, ki so potrebni za izvajanje pedagoško-andragoškega dela. Leta 2017 se je kot mlada raziskovalka zaposlila v Laboratoriju za diagnostiko zoonoz in laboratoriju WHO na Inštitutu za mikrobiologijo in imunologijo Medicinske Fakultete Univerze v Ljubljani, kjer je pridobila izkušnje s področja molekularne mikrobiologije, imunologije ter visoko patogenih mikroorganizmov. Z uspešnim zagovorom doktorske disertacije z naslovom »Imunski odziv in funkcionalnost Toll-u podobnih receptorjev pri bolnikih s klopnim meningoencefalitisom, cepljenih proti tej bolezni« je leta 2022 pridobila naziv doktorice znanosti. Po zaključku doktorskega študija se je zaposlila v Laboratoriju za pretočno citometrijo na Inštitutu za mikrobiologijo in imunologijo, kjer se je usmerila v področje naprednih celičnih zdravljenj – imunoterapije CAR-T. Z delom si je pridobila nova znanja o ravnanju z gensko spremenjenimi organizmi ter pripravi zdravil za napredno zdravljenje pod pogoji dobre proizvodne prakse. Aprila 2022 je bila habilitirana kot asistentka za področje mikrobiologije in imunologije in se s septembrom 2023 zaposlila na Katedri za mikrobiologijo in imunologijo Medicinske fakultete Univerze v Ljubljani, kjer se aktivno vključuje v pedagoško dejavnost.

Assist. Miša Marušić, PhD, completed her studies in structural and functional biology at the Biotechnical Faculty in Ljubljana in 2016. Following her master’s degree, she furthered her education by undertaking pedagogical and andragogic training at the Faculty of Education in Maribor, equipping herself with the essential knowledge and competencies required for pedagogical and andragogic work. In 2017, she joined the Laboratory for diagnosis of zoonoses and the laboratory WHO at the Institute of Microbiology and Immunology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Ljubljana, as a young researcher, gaining valuable experience in the fields of molecular microbiology, immunology, and highly pathogenic microorganisms. In 2022, she successfully defended her doctoral dissertation titled “Immune response and functionality of toll-like receptors in vaccine breakthrough patients with tick-borne encephalitis.” She continued working in the Laboratory for cellular immunology at the Institute of Microbiology and Immunology, where she primarily focuses on the field of advanced cellular therapies, specifically CAR T-cell immunotherapy. In the course of her work, she acquired new knowledge on handling genetically modified organisms and the preparation of drugs for advanced treatment under the conditions of good manufacturing practice. In April 2022, she was habilitated as Assistant Teacher in the fields of microbiology and immunology, and since September 2023 she has been employed at the Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Ljubljana, where she is actively involved in teaching.
