The framework of my research is mathematical modeling for medicine.
I am interested in applications to oncology, with a specific focus on therapies oriented towards personalized medicine.
I develop continuous and hybrid models for epigenetically structured cancer cell populations in order to study their dynamics and to investigate the impact of ecological and patient-specific evolutionary characteristics on the disease progression and on the response to therapies.
I am also interested in the study of brain matter and the cellular population of the nervous system, with a particular focus on the biomathematical characterization of neurodegenerative processes.
