INTERESTS

My main interests are transmembrane proteins related to osmoregulation and thermal stress, above all in polychaetes annelids. In research, I love to combine different approaches (from experimental, to microscopy and molecular one) to better understand the mechanisms involved in the adaptations of the target species.

Other passions? Travelling, dancing and being surrounded by nature and friends.
