Laura Teodori, PhD

Researcher

Summary

I was born in Rome. I graduated in Biology, summa cum laude, at the University of Rome "La Sapienza". I was a postdoctoral fellow at the MD Anderson Hospital Cancer Research Institute, Department of Developmental Therapeutics, University of Texas, USA, working with Prof. Bartek Barlogie, on the application of the multiparametric flow cytometry (FC), on cell cycle kinetics, and on a variety of cellular and molecular techniques.
In 1981 I worked with Prof. Wofgang Gohde, one of the FC inventors, at the Institute of Radiobiology (http://www.klinikum.uni-muenster.de/institute/stbio/), University of Muenster,Germany.
As pioneer of FC, I contributed to the development of the FC technique in Italy.
I have scientific collaboration with several international leading groups (e.g Prof. Zbigniew Darzynkiewicz http://www.darzynkiewicz.com/zbigniew. New York Medical College, New York, and Prof. J Paul Robinson www.cyto.purdue.edu/flowcyt/staffpgs/robinson.htm, Purdue University).
In 1999 and 2001 I was awarded with the Short Term Mobility Program from CNR spent at the University of Muenster and at the New York Medical College, respectively.
At present, I work in Rome at ENEA, National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and the Environment; I teach "Cytometry" at the School of Oncology, Medical Faculty, University of Rome "Sapienza" and Laboratory Biosafety at the University of Roma2 "Tor Vergata" Occupational Medicine.
I have been elected in 2004 as Councilor at the International Society for Analytical Cytology (ISAC) (www.isac-net.org). I am in the Scientiifc Council of the European Centre of Excellence "Molecular Medicine"
I published more than 50 cytometry related papers.
