I graduated at the University of Torino (Italy) in Plant Biotechnology. During my PhD at University of Torino and the Italian National Research Council, I worked on the characterization of transgenic resistant to virus in tomato. Then, I moved in the laboratory of Dr Jerzy Paszkowski at the University of Geneva (Switzerland) and then at The Sainsbury Laboratory at the University of Cambridge (UK), where I worked on plant epigenetics and transposable elements mobilization. In 2018 I moved to the University of Birmingham with an independent research position. In my laboratory I am combining molecular biology, genomics and computational approaches to study genome plasticity and epigenetics in plants.
