About me
​
I am a Research Associate working on different aspects of adipose tissue structural networks including extracellular matrix remodelling.
​
Research Interests
​
By combining in vivo and in vitro ​models mimicking pathophysiological conditions with imaging and systems biology approaches, I am investigating how impaired adipose tissue plasticity may influence tissue functionality.
