Biography: Michela is a postdoctoral associate in the Department of Therapeutic Radiology, where she works at developing methods based on the analysis of epigenetic alterations in liquid biopsies for an early detection and monitoring of the cancer disease. Prior to joining Yale, Michela received her PhD at the University of Trento, in Italy, where she developed a method to isolate extracellular vesicles from biological fluids and investigated the EGFR mutational dynamics in EV-RNA from plasma of non-small cell lung cancer patients.

Besides her research interests, Michela volunteered in local Italian associations where she contributed to organize science outreach initiatives and during her PhD, together with her colleagues, she organized a series of seminars. She joined YPA to interact and exchange ideas with a dynamic team of postdocs and acquire a new set of academic transferable skills, while contributing to organize events for the postdoctoral community.
