Natasa Hulak completed her PhD in the field of genetics (epigenetics) at the CSIC University of Sciences in Malaga, Spain. Part of her thesis was to characterize at the molecular level how the genome of the plant (Arabidopsis thaliana) changes and how epigenetically silenced genes as well as retrotransposons and methyltransferases are expressed when the plant defends itself as a consequence of a pathogenic bacterial attack (Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato). Later, she moved to the microbiology laboratory at the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Agriculture, where they analysed the microbiota of wild boar and deer as part of my postdoctoral research. They were interested in the genes coding for resistance to antibiotics and also in the autochthonous LAB bacteria that can be found in fermented sausages made from this type of meat.
