Biography

Malin Bäckström received her first degree in biochemistry and her PhD in medical microbiology, working with vaccine research, from University of Gothenburg. After a short post-doc in Cambridge, UK, she worked for many years in the mucin biology group at the University of Gothenburg, focusing on the production of these large, complex, and highly glycosylated proteins. In parallel, her group started the Mammalian Protein Expression (MPE) core facility for protein production in mammalian cells, and since 2015 she has focused on helping other researchers obtain the proteins they need for their research. Since 2022, MPE has joined forces with other Swedish protein production platforms and received joint funding from the Swedish Research Council to create the national infrastructure Protein Production Sweden (PPS), for which she is now Director.
