Iker Valle Aramburu obtained his BSc in Biochemistry from the University of the Basque Country (Spain) in 2011 and his MSci in Cellular Molecular Biology from Heidelberg University (Germany) in 2013. He was supervised for his PhD by EA Lemke at EMBL Heidelberg, where he studied the interaction mechanisms of intrinsically disordered proteins with the nuclear pore complex and transport receptors using diverse biophysical and chemical biology approaches. Following his PhD, Aramburu joined the Papayannopoulos Lab at the Francis Crick Institute, focusing his research on innate immunity and neutrophil biology. He has established his own lab at MIMS (Swedish Node EMBL molecular medicine partner institutes), where he leads a research group applying his interdisciplinary background and state-of-the-art technologies to uncover the role of unknown microproteins in innate immune processes. Iker's research interests include the exploration of the microproteome in immune cells, with a specific focus on the applications of bioinformatics tools for non-bioinformaticians to study unknown microprotein sequences.
