About

I’m an interdisciplinary life scientist with experience across cell and molecular biology, synthetic biology, and industrial bioprocessing. I enjoy working at the intersection of research and application, from understanding biological mechanisms to translating them into scalable solutions.

Currently, I am at Human Technopole in Milan, where I work on stem cell engineering and functional genomics to study clonal hematopoiesis. Previously, I contributed to synthetic biology and in vitro transcription workflows at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry and gained hands-on industrial experience in the downstream processing of microalgal proteins at Prevo Biotech, a 4-member startup, sharpening my adaptability and problem-solving mindset.

My earlier experience in neurobiology at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence strengthened my imaging and data analysis skills, while my undergraduate research provided a strong foundation in microbiology and bioprocess fundamentals.

What I bring:
• Hands-on: stem cell culture, molecular cloning, qPCR, protein purification
• Interdisciplinary mindset: industry + academic environments
• Fast learner who thrives in dynamic, collaborative teams

I’m motivated by technologies that push the boundaries of biology, and I’m continuously exploring how biological systems can be engineered to create a meaningful impact.

Always happy to connect with researchers and innovators in biotech, cell therapy, and industrial biology.
