Oncogenes, transcription and cancer - Technician

I obtained a Master's Degree in Pharmacy in 1988 and a Postgraduate Qualification in Experimental Endocrinology in 1991 from University of Milano (Italy)
I started my career as a research technician at DiBit, San Raffaele Hospital, in Claudio Bordignon's laboratory of Gene Therapy, moving later to the Telethon Institute of Gene Therapy (TIGET) where I continued working on gene transfer in human and mouse cells using retro and lentiviral vectors.
Since 2004 I joined Bruno Amati's laboratory at the European Institute of Oncology (IEO), where I strengthened my skills in molecular biology techniques. In particular I am the lab reference for designing and implementing CRISPR-Cas9-based technology.

In 2024 I moved to the laboratory of Molecular Mechanisms of Cancer and Aging under the supervision of Ivan Dellino, where I use different "multi-omics" approaches to cancer research
