As a young researcher, I am just beginning to achieve my first milestones and professional experiences. Starting my PhD program and winning the Francesca Martini Award are among the most significant accomplishments so far.

My research has allowed me to explore and investigate various aspects of molecular and cellular biology. This includes genomic editing of primary human T cells, vector production, and the study of receptor endocytosis mechanisms. These diverse approaches have given me the opportunity to delve into multiple biological processes within the cell, providing a comprehensive perspective on my research focus.

My area of expertise focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying T cell function and dysfunction. Specifically, I am specializing in the study of receptor dynamics and signaling pathways of the Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) and the T Cell Receptor (TCR). The scientific question I aim to address is how to enhance the efficiency of CAR-T therapy in cases of dysfunction. Additionally, my goal is to expand my career in immunological research, further exploring innovative approaches to improve immunotherapy and deepen our understanding of immune system mechanisms.
