Role: Associate Professor
Affiliation: Department of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, University of Milan
Description
I have a degree in Biological Sciences and a Ph.D. in Genetics. I work in plant developmental biology and am interested in the mechanisms that control ripening in fruits and how hormonal fluctuations can promote the attack of pathogenic mechanisms. I teach Botany, Plant Biology and Systematics, and Symbiosis and Parasitism. Our research activities are aimed at slowing down fruit ripening to improve their storage.
