1- Life of a PhD student in Torino, Italy 2- La dolce vita: Studying in Italy, surviving quarantine and COVID-19 Project Title: Identification of placental derived angiomodulatory extracellular vesicles
|
Natalia is in her third year of PhD. Having completed a biochemistry degree in Nottingham she moved to Torino, Italy to join the iPlacenta consortium. During the first year of the PhD she worked on finding a method to extract and characterize extracellular vesicles from amniotic fluid from normal and preeclamptic pregnancies. During her second year she completed a secondment in collaboration with MIMETAS in The Netherlands where she was testing the effects of amniotic fluid derived extracellular vesicles on the Organ on a chip placenta model. Currently in her final year, she is starting a project on urinary extracellular vesicles from preeclamptic patients as a mean for diagnostic purposes. Moreover, she is also working on a collaboration with University of Aston, where she will be working with serum derived extracellular vesicles of murine preeclampsia models at full term and post delivery to observe the differences in vesicle profile and changes after delivery.
