Dr. Julia Christine Gutjahr is an independent research group leader based in Switzerland with expertise in chemokine receptor biology and intracellular signaling.

She received her PhD training in the field of hematological malignancies, which shaped her interest in hematopoietic signaling pathways.

Her current work focuses on non-canonical and intracellular functions of the chemokine receptor CXCR4, including its roles in erythroid cells, bridging fundamental chemokine biology with questions relevant to hematopoiesis and disease.
