I studied biology and obtained a PhD in 2000 from the University of Perugia (Italy). In 2001, I moved to the UK (first to Leicester then to Nottingham) and worked on genome evolution, population genomics and telomere biology using the budding yeasts, S. cerevisiae and other closely related species, as model organisms. In 2011, I moved to Nice (France) as CNRS researcher where I lead a team working on yeast population genomics and complex traits analysis.
