Silvia Rouskin (born February 25, 1983) is a molecular biologist and Assistant Professor of Microbiology at Harvard Medical School. [1] Her research focuses on RNA, RNA alternative 2 and 3-dimensional structures, and alternative splicing of RNA. [2] She is well known for developing the DMS-MaPseq and DREEM methods. [3] [4]

She publishes under the name of Silvi Rouskin. [5]

Early life and education

Rouskin was born in 1983 in People's Republic of Bulgaria. Her parents were rock musicians, who made most of their career in Norway. Rouskin was raised by her grandparents until age six. As the Bulgarian communist regime collapsed in 1991, she moved to the state of Idaho in 1998 for her high-school junior year, as part of a student exchange program with the USA. [6]

At 16 years old, Rouskin passed the General Educational Development and enrolled in the Florida Institute of Technology as a freshman. She obtained a BS in Physics in 2003. After being a technical assistant at Joe DeRisi's lab between 2004 and 2007, Rouskin completed her Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in 2014 at UCSF School of Medicine. [7]

Career

In 2015, Rouskin became a Whitehead Fellow at the Whitehead Institute, a non-profit institute located in Massachusetts Institute of Technology. [8]

She is an Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School since 2021. [9]
