I find fascinating what determines whether a cell survives or dies. I want to make an impact in the understanding of how the deregulation of cell death leads to inflammation-related pathologies, including cancer.
In my free time I like travelling, cooking, watching sports and I spend time with my family

One of my biggest purposes in life is to contribute to improve people’s health. I believe that science, teamwork and the field of cell death can help me to achieve this. 
In my free time I enjoy playing football, biking, dancing, and sharing moments with my family and friends.

The delicate equilibrium between cell death and proliferation is particularly interesting to me since it surrounds life's complex development and homeostasis from day one. This scientific journey allows me to follow my curiosity and reveal hidden knowledge about health and death. Combined with an inspiring and passionate team, investigating cell death pathways is a thrilling adventure.

Complex systems such as a healthy organism or cancer are governed by the same basic life processes. How these are interconnected and altered in health and disease is an exciting challenge, that I would love to pursue. My ultimate goal is to be able to uncover novel targets in these biological pathways. In my free time I enjoy doing sports, hiking and spending time with friends and family.
