I earned a master’s degree in Biology for Molecular, Cellular and Pathophysiological Research at Roma Tre University. I studied adult hippocampal neurogenesis, regulation of cell cycle, and neuronal differentiation in cellular and mouse models as a master student and as an intern at the Institute of Cell Biology and Neurobiology (IBCN) of the National Research Council (CRN) of Rome. In 2021, I completed my Ph.D. in “Cell and Developmental Biology” at Sapienza University of Rome. Between 2018 and 2021, I investigated neural stem cell properties and neurogenesis in a mice model carrying an autism-associated mutation. In 2021, I moved to perform my post-doctoral training at the Department of CIBIO, University of Trento. Here my research was focused on elucidating the physiological role and the functional characterization of the protein Negr1, linked to neuropsychiatric diseases. During this 7+ years of experience I gained expertise in various molecular biology and immunofluorescence techniques but I also obtained extensive knowledge of cellular biology and in vivo modelling.
