I am a Scientist at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center in Columbus, Ohio. With over 13 years of experience in immunology, cancer biology, and cancer therapy, I have developed extensive expertise in cell biology, molecular biology, and immunology. In 2016, I earned my PhD in Pharmacology and Molecular Oncology from the University of Ferrara in Italy. Over the past five years, my research has primarily focused on investigating the biological mechanisms that contribute to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment in solid tumors. Additionally, I serve as a mentor and project leader, guiding the next generation of scientists in their research endeavors.
