Pavla Boháčová, Ph.D
Pavla is a postdoctoral research associate at Washington University in St. Louis (MO, USA), where she investigates immune system dynamics during human aging. Her research integrates multidimensional spectral flow cytometry and transcriptional multiomics to dissect age-related changes in naïve and memory T cell populations in humans, with a focus on recent thymic emigrants (RTEs). She began her scientific journey at Charles University in Prague, earning her PhD in Immunology while working in the Department of Cell Biology and the Institute of Experimental Medicine, where she specialized in cellular immunology and developed expertise in cytometry techniques. During her postdoctoral studies, she transitioned into aging research, combining experimental and computational approaches to bridge immunology with big-data analysis. She was recently selected for the Marylou Ingram Scholars Program of the International Society for Advancement of Cytometry, a prestigious initiative that fosters leadership development and advances cytometry research. Through her work, she aims to leverage cutting-edge technologies to deepen our understanding of immune aging and drive the development of precision medicine for age-related diseases.
