Invited speakers & discussants

Research Scientist, Institute of Biophysics of the Italian National Research Council (Palermo). PhD in Chemistry from University of Palermo in 2014. Since graduation, her research interest was focused on supramolecular chemistry. In particular, she studied self-assemby processes in organic salts leading to gel phase formation, molecular recognition processes and ionic liquids organization. Her currently research field is computational neuroscience, implementing data-driven subcellular models of the biochemical pathways involved in synaptic plasticity and single neuron, mainly from the hippocampus region, under both physiological and pathological conditions.
