Recent Scientific Activities
I am working with Dr. Francesco Carimi and Dr. Davide Pacifico at pathogens identification (virus/phytoplasma) in Sicilian grapevine germplasm. The main techniques of analysis are: ELISA Test, Multiplex-PCR, Real-Time PCR (Bio-Rad CFX 200). In the past, I have worked mainly in the field of endomembrane trafficking using techniques ranging from molecular biology to biochemistry, with particular interest in confocal and electron microscopy.
