Fulvio D'Angelo is a Research Assistant Professor at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Miami. His main research activities are focused on the genomic profiling of sporadic and syndromic glioma for the identification of genetic alterations that drive gliomagenesis and tumor evolution. Fulvio D'Angelo received his Master’s degree in Medical Biotechnologies (2006) and completed his PhD in Genetics (2011) at University of Naples Federico II. During his undergraduate and graduate studies, he attended molecular biology labs and collaborated to biomedical research projects including differential proteomics and the generation of genetics mouse models. After his PhD graduation, his main interest has been directed to the high throughput sequencing technologies that were just emerging and he moved to the bioinformatics lab of Prof. Michele Ceccarelli at Biogem, Ariano Irpino. Through large-scale genomics and gene expression analyses, he studied the molecular mechanisms underlying human diseases, especially focusing on cancer. From 2017 to 2022, he joined the research groups of Prof. Antonio Iavarone and Prof. Anna Lasorella at Columbia University of New York for studying glioma through the molecular profiling of clinical and experimental samples.
