Developed skills and lines of research

Debora Baroni is a Researcher at the Institute of Biophysics, National Research Council (CNR), in Genoa, Italy. She obtained her degree in Biology in 2001 and her PhD in Pharmacology and Clinical Toxicology in 2005 at the University of Genoa. Her research focuses on the structure and function of proteins involved in genetic diseases, with particular attention to cystic fibrosis. Specifically, regarding the CFTR protein, she uses biomolecular, cellular, and biophysical approaches to investigate the effects of point mutations on its structure and function, and to study the mechanisms of action of modulator drugs developed to correct its molecular defects.
