I am a biochemist turned molecular neuropathologist with a PhD in neuroscience and genetics. My independent research focuses on epigenetics and epilepsy. Researching a disease like epilepsy allows me to study the human brain’s complexity and beauty while finding meaning in improving patients’ lives and clinical care.

I love maths and computer science. As a postdoc with loads of experience in machine and deep learning, I am overseeing epigenetic data analysis projects, helping train new students, and also participating in teaching activities. In my project, I investigate transgenerational effects of early-life exposure to ASMs.

I am an MD specialized in Medical Cybernetics. My background is mainly computational, and I love analyzing all types of omics data. But more recently, I moved to the wet lab to do exciting research on cellular and brain mechanics.

I am a biologist and currently in the final stretch of my PhD in “Oncology, Hematology, and Pathology”. I left my home in Italy to join the Kobow Lab for a 6-month internship to gain new skills in epigenetics and programming and to enjoy the opportunity to network, collaborate, and grow professionally and personally.

I am a bioinformatician by training now doing a PhD in Computational Neuroscience. My current research explores the role of DNA methylation in the pathogenesis of epilepsy and the use of epigenetic signatures as diagnostic, predictive, and prognostic biomarker.

I am a Molecular Medicine student interested in translational neuroscience. With previous experience in patient-derived iPSCs as a model for neuromuscular disease, I am now doing my Master’s thesis on aging in epilepsy using experimental animal models and human surgical brain tissue.

I do all the routine stuff in the lab, but I also love research, and help wherever I am needed.
