Scientist at OncoOne Research & Development
“The great and dynamic team of the Sexl lab joins forces to answer molecular biology questions and translates the results to improve cancer treatments. During my time in Veronika’s group I received tremendous support to further develop myself and to gain knowledge and skills important for any life science career path.”

Agnieszka Witalisz-Siepracka, Ph.D.
PostDoc at Karl Landsteiner University, Krems, Austria
“My post-doc time in NK cell team: great science, great people and a dynamic, rewarding atmosphere!”

Zsuszanna Bago-Horvath, MD
Ass. Prof. (tenure track), Clinical Institute of Pathology, Medical University of Vienna, Austria
„I would not want to miss the time as a postdoc in the SEXL Lab! It was one of the most challenging, rewarding and fun experiences of my carreer. I really enjoyed working with a very competent team leader and an extremely focused and nice group. What I learned from mouse models helps me even today with my projects and it was crucial for me to get a tenure track position at the Meduni Vienna.”

Eva Maria Zebedin-Brandl, MD, Ph.D.
Specialist in pharmacology and toxicology, tenure track position, centre of Physiology and Pharmacology, Medical University Vienna, Austria
“Veronika’s scientific education and the time in her lab shaped my future career in translational pharmacology. She is a great mentor, a perfect role model not only for female scientists. She has given me the confidence to take setbacks as opportunities and to “stand up, check the crown, and walk on”! I often miss the inspiring and creative atmosphere in her lab. Fortunately, the scientific collaboration and our personal connections are continued.”

Dagmar Stoiber, Ph.D.
Professor of Pharmacology Principal Investigator, Karl Landsteiner University, Krems, Austria
“An exciting and inspiring environment – I was there in the beginning of the lab and enjoyed my time there tremendously.”

Eva Maria König (née Putz), Ph.D.
Prinicipal Investigator at CCRI Vienna, Austria
“After performing my PhD and a short postdoctoral stay in the Sexl lab, I am truly grateful to Veronika to give me (a career changer coming straight from my undergraduate training as a chemist with very limited expertise in molecular biology) the opportunity to immerge into the universe of tumor immunology and to be part of such an innovative and inspiring team. I sincerely loved and sometimes miss our intensive brainstorming meetings that required an infinite amount of espressi and chocolate.”

Gertrude Koppel
Laboratory Diagnostics, Vetmeduni Vienna, Austria
„Habe viele sehr interessante Menschen kennenlernen dürfen und schätzte die Möglichkeit, meine Arbeit als Tierpflegerin selbstständig durchführen zu können!“

Iris Uras Jodl, Ph.D.
Tenure track position, Institute of Pharmacology, Medical University Vienna, Austria
“You won’t regret joining the Sexl lab, not for one second. A great mentor with an open door and ears for any matter. An enjoyable environment. Simply best place to work. In my case, it was an all inclusive package from high impact papers to husband and kids. Do not miss this chance of a lifetime!“

Leo Edlinger, MD
Resident Physician in Internal Medicine and Hematology and Oncology at University Hospital of the Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich, Germany
“The time spent in the Sexl lab and the PhD program “Inflammation and Immunity” built my basis for understanding the molecular pathophysiology of hematologic/oncologic diseases and fostered my curiosity about biological processes in cancer. Working in basic leukemia and lymphoma research together with excellent scientists from the fields of molecular biology and medicine, I mostly appreciated the constructive team spirit to answer clinically relevant questions with the tools of molecular biology. With the gained knowledge I specialized in hematology and oncology at the Ludwig-Maximilians-University in Munich.“
