Institute of Neurophysiopathology, France
CNRS researcher
Chiara obtained a double PhD degree in pharmaceutical sciences (UCLouvain - University of Angers, Erasmus Mundus NanoFar) in 2018. She then performed a postdoc at the Institute of NeuroPhysiopathology (INP - UMR7051, France) and obtained a role as Assistant Professor in Pharmaceutical Technology at the University of Turin (Italy) in 2022. Currently, she is tenured CNRS researcher at the INP within the Gliomagenesis and MicroEnvironment group. Chiara’s research focus is the development of drug-loaded delivery systems for the treatment of malignant brain tumors. Coming from a family of scientists, artists, cooking- and travelling-lovers, Chiara grew up with the idea that new is good, international is fun and passion is the key. This allowed her to develop a global vision of science, interact with experts in different disciplines and become a T-shaped researcher able to develop academic research in a bench to bedside perspective. In addition to her passion for research, Chiara has a strong interest in mentoring younger scientists and for this reason she happily coordinates the YSC Mentoring program! Chiara joined the CRS to represent and promote the work of her research groups into the drug delivery community and to develop collaborations that might lead to exciting projects. Being part of the YSC has been a fantastic way to expand her network, receive and provide feedback on diverse topics, implement a variety of soft skills & contribute to the progress of the scientific community.
