Overview
Fabio is a computational scientist interested in the use of statistical and machine learning techniques to study and characterize complex diseases such as cancer. He received both his B.Sc. (2016) and M.Sc. (2018) in biomedical engineering from Politecnico di Milano (Italy). During his studies, he had various experiences in Industry and Academia and contributed to highly multidisciplinary and collaborative projects at the forefront of biomedical innovation. Fabio completed his doctoral studies at the Technical University of Munich, where he developed new methods and approaches for patient stratification in precision oncology. Sport enthusiast and involved in youth engagement activities, he was selected as Italian delegate to the G7 Youth Summit 2021, one of the official engagement groups of the G7, in the Digital and Technology track. Currently, he is a postdoctoral researcher in the Hovestadt Lab at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, where he uses single cell sequencing technologies to advance our understanding of childhood brain tumors.

PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
