Marine Biotechnology, Marine Products

I am at the 2nd semester of the joint master program of marine biotechnology of eu-conexus. Supported by the European Union. Here is the link: https://www.eu-conexus.eu/en/marine-biotechnology/

Mediterranean Sea - Western Basin

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Biotechnology, during which I completed a thesis on “Application of Real-Time PCR to Detect the Cell Response to Plastic Derivative Contamination in Ciliates,” with a focus on desaturases involved in membrane fluidity. This was followed by a research internship at the Department of Limnology in Austria, where I contributed to an integrative taxonomic study on ciliates. I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Marine Biotechnology, which is allowing me to finally enter the marine science field that has always been my passion.

In 2023, I volunteered at the Pacuare Reserve in Costa Rica for sea turtle conservation, gaining valuable hands-on experience in marine wildlife protection. Following this, I obtained my Open Water Scuba Diving certification (18m), which has further deepened my connection to the ocean. I am a highly motivated, collaborative, and communicative individual with a strong desire to grow within the marine science community. I speak Italian, English, and Spanish fluently, and I am eager to expand my knowledge and contribute actively through your courses. Skilled in molecular biology and microbiology laboratory.
