Speakers
Erik Bonke Field Application Specialist Promega
Erik Bonke received a Diploma in biology from the Johannes-Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany in 2012. In his diploma thesis at the University Hospital in Mainz he worked at the genetic manipulation of murine embryonic stem cells in order to generate different transgenic mouse strains. He did his doctoral thesis at the University Hospital in Frankfurt am Main, where he focused on the mechanistic fundamentals of mitochondrial ROS generation and their physiological implication as cellular second messenger molecules, a process termed redox signaling. After completion of the experimental part of his thesis, Mr. Bonke joined Promega Germany to work as an Application Specialist with a main focus on cellular reporter technologies. As part of this position, he is giving frequent practical as well as theoretical workshops/seminars on the application of Promega's current luminescent reporter portfolio. In 2018, he was awarded a doctoral degree by the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University Frankfurt.
Vojtěch Ledvina aplikační specialista East Port
Vojtěch Ledvina received his master's degree in biotechnology at the Brno University of Technology and subsequently completed his doctoral studies in analytical chemistry at Masaryk University and the Institute of Analytical Chemistry of the CAS. He has been involved in, among other things, the study of cell differentiation by bioluminescence and the synthesis and functionalization of fluorescent nanoparticles. Since 2020, he has been working in Eastport as an application specialist over products from Promega.
