プロフィール概要

My major research interest has been the understanding of the molecular mechanism of lipid and glucose homeostasis and the implications of such mechanisms in the pathogenesis of obesity, diabetes, and atherosclerosis During my doctoral studies, I analyzed the role of HDACs and other chromatin-remodeling factors in the repression of CYP7A1 by bile acids. I also had the opportunity to work on another project focusing on the research of novel dual PPARalpha/gamma ligands with improved pharmacological properties. I performed my first post-doc at University of California, Los Angeles in the group of Prof. Peter Tontonoz. My study was devoted to the impact of Idol gene on the cellular regulation of low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) and I contributed to the characterization of Idol role in affecting the lipid metabolism. During my second post-doc at ETH-Zurich, my research activity is focused on the identification of novel potential molecular targets for the design of anti-diabetic compounds. From a technical point of view, I can offer extensive and optimal knowledge in cell biology (immortalized and primary cell lines included experience with stem cells), molecular biology (DNA recombinant technologies, siRNA, shRNA and miRNA), biochemistry (included production and purification of recombinant proteins and monoclonal antibodies from hybridoma cell lines), a good experience in microscopy and several animal practices (generation of transgenic and knock-out mouse models). Moreover I have 6+ years of experience writing, reviewing, and editing scientific manuscripts for prestigious journal like Science, Cell Metabolism and Journal Lipid Research, developing research grant proposals, performing literature reviews and preparing abstracts and presentations for scientific conferences. I have also a long experience communicating science to an academic as well as a lay audience. During my career I was teaching assistant in the laboratory of Biochemistry (University of Milan) and in Insulin Signaling Course (ETH-Zurich) and mentor for different Biology students.
