Dr. Maria Grazia Giansanti is a Senior Researcher at CNR, Institute of Molecular
Biology and Pathology (IBPM). She completed her Ph.D. studies in Genetics and Molecular
Biology at University of Rome “La Sapienza” (Ph.D. thesis Cenci Bolognetti award).
1997 Residency in Applied Genetics at University of Rome “La Sapienza”.
A major focus of her research studies concerns the mechanisms underlying cytokinesis. Her research studies are currently focusing on the following projects: (1) The oncoprotein GOLPH3 and membrane trafficking in cytokinesis and mTOR signaling. (2) A Drosophila model for COG7-associated disease and other COG-related genetic disorders.
