"I can see myself as an influencer, an innovator and a manager since as a PhD student doing research I need to:- work on my own as well as rely on others with more experience when I need advice- plan in detail my experiments and inform myself about techniques and materials- be creative and think of alternatives to solve tasks and present data- be strong willed, motivated and organised "

"I am a PhD student at the University Clinic of Freiburg, in Germany. My research aims at finding new ways to treat lung cancer. "

"As a high school student I was very curious about chemistry and biology, as well as physics and philosophy. I also liked swimming and performing in a drama club. When the time to choose what to do next came, I decided to follow the passion I had in spending time doing experiments in labs, and I enrolled at the University of Padova to study molecular biology. After graduation, I decided to enroll at the University of Trento to gain a Master's degree in Biotechnology. "

"In my free time I like cooking, watching films or TV series, talking long walks in the forest and spend time with friends. "

"Every day I go the lab to perform some experiments and handle the cell lines I culture. I also spend some time of the day reading scientific papers to gain insights into my field of research and analysing the data I get from the experiments, which I then put into nice plots that I can use for presenting my work.
