Researcher at University of Rome "Tor Vergata"

Profile Summary

I am an immunologist with over 20 years of experience in biomedical research and more than 70 peer-reviewed publications in high-impact international journals.

My expertise spans cancer immunology, colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), mucosal immunology, mitochondrial biology, and translational research. I currently work as a researcher at the University of Rome Tor Vergata and serve as Academic Editor and reviewer for several international journals.

I help researchers, biotech companies, and clinicians transform scientific ideas into high-quality manuscripts, competitive grant applications, and robust experimental strategies.

Services include:

• Scientific manuscript editing
• Manuscript review before journal submission
• Grant proposal writing and editing
• Reviewer response preparation
• Experimental design
• Data interpretation (RNA-seq, proteomics, metabolomics, flow cytometry)
• Figure improvement and scientific storytelling
• Literature reviews
• Consultation in immunology, oncology and gastrointestinal diseases

I combine scientific rigor with clear communication and practical solutions to help clients publish stronger papers and develop competitive research projects.
