RESEARCH

Our lab focuses on deciphering molecular mechanisms governing gene expression. In 2022, we applied our expertise to study vulvodynia, a poorly recognized women's health condition. Transcriptomic analyses aim to identify specific biomarkers, with successful crowdfunding and institutional support driving our impactful research.

PUBLICATIONS

Our impactful publications span diverse areas, including meso-endoderm differentiation, tissue memory, single-cell techniques, and the role of long noncoding RNAs. These contributions showcase our commitment to advancing molecular biology, stem cell research, and single-cell technologies.

PEOPLE

Valentina Proserpio, our Principal Investigator since 2021, leads the team with expertise gained from roles at renowned institutions. Her academic journey, from a Ph.D. in Biomolecular Sciences to post-doctoral fellowships, reflects a commitment to advancing understanding in gene expression and women's health.
