About
I was born in Italy.
I obtained a master's degree in biological sciences, in the physio-pathological field.
I have always shown a certain interest in the field of neuroscience and for this reason I obtained a PhD degree in Biomedical Sciences with a Neuroscience specialization.
During my PhD trainee I spent 14 months at Centre for Stem Cells Biology at University of Sheffiled, where I got the first experience with stem cells.
During my Post Doc at Hebrew University of Jesusalem I work with human embryonic stem cells and I differentiated them into dopaminergic neurons as in 2D as in 3D.
I have always wanted to broaden my knowledge in other fields such as angiogenesis also applied to tumors and 3D modeling.
I have become an expert in the genesis, expansion and maintenance of oganoids of the human midbrain.
I created mono, bi and tricellular spheroids both in static and dynamic culture.
