Fabio Arnesano received his degree in Chemistry from the University of Florence in 1997 and his Ph.D. in Chemical Sciences in 2000. In 2001, he took a postdoctoral fellowship at the Magnetic Resonance Center (CERM) of the University of Florence. He is currently Full Professor at the Department of Chemistry of the University of Bari. His research is dedicated to NMR spectroscopy and to the biophysical characterization of metalloproteins and protein complexes. His current research activity is focused on the interaction of platinum-based anticancer drugs with proteins and on the role of metal ions in cancer and neurodegenerative diseases through the use of various spectroscopic and microscopic techniques, also applied to living cells.
