Katarina obtained her PhD at the Faculty of Science of Charles University in Prague. There, she focused on plant evo-devo by studying the role of auxin and characterization of PIN auxin efflux carriers in streptophyte alga Chara braunii. She joined Roman Sobotka´s group in 2025 as a postdoctoral fellow, where she studies High light inducible proteins (Hlips) in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6803. In addition, as a part of OP JAK Photomachines project Katarina is exploring the reprogramming of regulatory pathways of Synechocystis through histidine kinase Hik33 and RpaB transcription factor module.
