Giulietta Roël is the site manager of the production plant at CO.DON AG (Germany) where cell-based ATMPs are manufactured, tested and released for the market. She joined the company in 2015 and started in the R&D department in close collaboration with Regulatory Affairs by coordinating projects regarding manufacturing and quality of a cell based ATMP for cartilage repair during the EU marketing authorization procedure. She is still engaged in projects concerning further regulatory requirements, e. g. the technical transfer of the manufacturing process to the new production plant in Leipzig (Germany).
Giulietta studied Biology at the University Utrecht and received her PhD degree at the Hubrecht Institute/University Utrecht in The Netherlands where she investigated cell fate decision mechanisms during embryonic development. Before joining CO.DON, she performed a post-doctoral research project in the field of translational medicine at the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in Berlin where she investigated specific cell signaling in vivo using life imaging in a mouse model for kidney transplantation.
