Prof. Barbara Zavan

Barbara Zavan is an Assistant Professor of Histology and the Head of the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Laboratory of the Biomedical Sciences Department of Padova University (Italy). She received her Ph.D. in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine from Padova University, where she also completed postdoctoral training in Stem Cell Biology. She is a member of several scientific societies, including TERMIS and the American Nano Society. Her research seeks to understand how changes in stem cell activity impact tissue homeostasis and repair throughout one's life and identify systemic molecules or surfaced modifications responsible for the regulation of regenerative potential.
