Jan Detleffsen

I’m a Master student within bioinformatics and systembiology and currently working as an HIWI at the MPI-HLR, interested in the topics genetics, epigenetics and data science in general.

I obtained my Bachelors-degree in Biology from the Justus-Liebig-University Gießen and conducted my Bachelors-thesis at the MPI-HLR. In my Bachelors-thesis project I established METTL3 and METTL14 knockout and knockdown 3T3 cells, by CRISPR Cas9 and CRISPR Cas13, to alter the m⁶A abundance in RNA. Currently I am working on single cell ATACseq data mediated bulk ATACseq deconvolution to gain insights into celltype decomposition.
