I am a Ph.D. student in Data Science at the University of Rome “La Sapienza”. As my doctoral studies are conducted in collaboration with the IRCCS National Cancer Institute “Regina Elena”. I am currently undertaking my project within Maurizio Fanciulli’s group.
Our group is focused on the investigation of the epigenetic principles that lead to cancer progression and drug resistance, mainly in liquid cancers such as Multiple Myeloma, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, and Acute Multiple Myeloma. In the lab, we conjugate cutting-edge NGS techniques with the newest bioinformatics algorithms. Thus, my everyday work consists of analyzing NGS data, both bulk and single-cell, and integrating multiple sources of data from publicly available databases to obtain solid results for biological questions.
