Short biography

I was born in Naples on 18 May 1982. I received the B.Sc. degree (Laurea I livello) in 2006 with a final mark of 103/110. In October 2008 I started my Master of Science final  project under the supervision Professor Adriano Peron and in collaboration with Diego di Bernardo at the Telethon Institute of Genetics and Medicine. My project focuses on the  development of a method for the study and analysis of microarray experimental data from human and mouse tissues and cell lines, with the aim of discovering tissue- and cell-  specific gene regulation via a novel a data “warehousing” technique to cope with computational complexity due to large datasets. I received my M.Sc. degree (Laurea II livello) in  October 2009 with a final mark of 110/110.
