Developed skills and lines of research

Adriana Eramo graduated in Biological Sciences in 1990 from the University of Rome La Sapienza. Since 2001, she has been a senior researcher leading a research group in the Department of Hematology, Oncology, and Molecular Medicine at the Istituto Superiore di Sanità in Rome. She has dedicated over twenty years to translational research, much of which focused on studying human cancers. She is now studying stem cells, including their role in cystic fibrosis.

As of 2018, she has published 39 papers in high-impact international scientific journals, appearing as the first or last author in nine of them. Her works have been cited more than 3,200 times.
