Dr. Koubek joins the NeuroNetwork for Emerging Therapies as a science writer, working primarily with the diabetes group. Her efforts in managing, writing, and editing manuscripts and scientific communications are integral to sharing the lab's findings, both with the science community and the general public. In doing so, she helps to improve the current state of knowledge and raise the profile of the NeuroNetwork and its researchers.
Previously, Dr. Koubek was a senior research fellow and Instructor of Pharmacology in the Department of Oncology at Mayo Clinic. There, she managed a preclinical pharmacokinetics (exploration of drug absorption, metabolism, disposition, and excretion prior to clinical use) contract with the National Cancer Institute. Along with data analysis, this work offered plenty of experience in writing and preparing manuscripts, which she will bring to her work with the NeuroNetwork.
