Dr. Caterina Carraro is a postdoctoral researcher at the Systems Medicine department of the German Center for Neurodegenerative diseases (DZNE) in Bonn. She obtained her master’s degree in Pharmaceutical Biotechnologies in 2017 and her PhD in Molecular Sciences in 2021, both at the University of Padova. During her PhD, she worked on the in vitro development of nucleic acids-targeting anticancer candidates, applying molecular and omic-based approaches to characterize their mechanism of action and determinants of sensitivity (ORCID: 0000-0002-3039-4675). Her research is now focused on the discovery and repurposing of drugs against neurodegeneration using single-cell and spatial transcriptomics.
