Research Interest: Translational Medicine, Molecular Pathology, Hepatology/Liver Disorders, Oncology, Cancer Biology

Research Interest: Design and synthesis of two-photon fluorescent dyes & sensors for biological molecules and ionic species. 

Research Interest: Microbiology, Infectious diseases, Antimicrobial resistance.

Research Interest: My current areas of interest include in vitro fertilization, ICSI, studies of human gamete, zygote and embryo morphology in relation to their developmental ability, and chromosomal constitution (PGD, PGS), as well as the cryopreservation of embryos and oocytes.

Research Interest: Biology, 2. Cell Biology, 3. Animal and Human Reproduction, 4. Embryonic Stem cell, 5. Virology, embryonic stem cell field, but I am also interested in Stem Cell Cytology, Cell Adhesion & Signalling and Cell Growth & Differentation

Research Interest: I have expertise in biochemistry, molecular biology, neuro-oncology, and neuroscience. Currently, my most important areas of investigation include neuro-oncology and neurological diseases. I have been conducting research for more than 20 years in different malignant diseases of blood, breast, brain, and adrenal gland. I also conduct molecular studies in neurodegenerative disorders.

Research Interest: 1. Primary rat astroglial cells cultures. 2. Neuroblastoma and glioblastoma cells cultures. 3. Effect of antioxidant molecules [(+) thioctic acid, (+/-) thioctic acid] and choline containing compounds on proliferation and differentiation neural cell culture. 4. Study of anticancer molecules (e.g. bortezomib) and neuroprotective ones (e.g. thioctic acid) in in vitro model of neoplastic cell cultures. 5. Effect of alpha lipoic acid and choline-containing compounds, on the expression of some astroglial biomarkers during proliferation and differentiation of astrocyte cell cultures and neuroblastoma cell lines.

I have completed my PhD in Cell Biology, working with glioma cells and studying their behavior, using cell culture, and various techniques and in vitro conditions and treatments to analyze cell responses and morphology, to study the angiogenesis response of endothelial cells in glioma, and the role of inflammatory mediators. After this, I did a post-doctoral period in Spain, where I worked with artificial skin and stem cells. I did other Postdoctoral research in Germany (DKFZ- German Centre of Research Cancer) worked with iPS cells and adoptive transfer for melanoma immunotherapy. Now I am an Associated Professor in Histology at Federal University of Santa Catarina- Brazil.

Research Interest: Cancer (Central nervous system and melanoma), angiogenesis, invasion and migration of tumoral cells

I approached science in 1999-2000 as AFS exchange students in Atlanta GA, USA. I graduated from medical school G. d’Annunzio University, Chieti in 2007, with my research project “Evaluation of E6-E7 proteins in HPV related lesion of the cervix”. In 2008 I started working at Histopathology Dept., ASL2 Lanciano-Vasto-Chieti “SS Annunziata” Hospital, Chieti, Italy and at Histopathology Dept., “G. Bernabeo” Hospital, Ortona (CH), Italy. In 2011 I have got involved in academic activities such as teaching in clinical practice to junior doctors and medical students and I kept working on HPV related lesions and on target therapy in lung cancer.

In 2012 and 2013 I was a visitor fellow at University College London Hospital, London.

On July 2014 I finished my training in Histo/Cytopathology discussing my research project on renal pathology which is still on going. Since August 2014 I am on GMC Specialist Register.

Now I am working as Clinical Fellow in Histopathology at Royal Brompton Hospital, London focusing on cardiothoracic pathology.

Research Interest: Lung cancer, breast cancer, HPV related disease and IgA nephropathy.

Number of Publication: 24

Research Interest: Hybrid molecular imaging (PET/CT and SPECT/CT), oncology (particularly colorectal and head & Neck cancer and malignant lymphoma), criteria of response assessment after therapy (by conventional imaging and molecular imaging) and meta-analysis.

Research Interest: Cytopathology, Immunocytopathology, Molecular Cytology, Apoptosis And Oncology.
