Cell and developmental biology studies cell structure and differentiation focusing on immunohistochemical detection of specific molecular markers.
Lines of research:
- Evaluation of stem cells as potential agents in the recovery of acoustic and olfactory sensory epithelia after permanent damage from toxicants and pollutants (Prof. Valeria Franceschini)
- Effects of toxicants and pollutants on acoustic and olfactory sensory epithelia in vertebrates (Dr. Maurizio Lazzari)
- Germ cell differentiation in vertebrates and invertebrates (Dr. Maria Gabriella Maurizii)
- Mitochondria and germ line development ( Prof. Liliana Milani)
