Biography

I am a young scientific researcher focused on the identification of therapeutic solutions to human diseases. My current study involves the identification and validation of a miRNA-based predictive signature for lung cancer patients, and an investigation of the role played by miRNAs in eliciting chemotherapeutic response. Therefore, through persistence and hard work, I believe that I too will be able to extend new frontiers, and develop improved innovations in the field of Health and Science.
