Biography

Research activity on QSARs and Structure Alerts, particularly for genotoxicity and carcinogenicity endpoints. Research activity on the mechanisms of action of mutagens and carcinogens (genotoxic and non-genotoxic). Study and coding of structural determinants for chemicals genotoxicity and carcinogenicity. Construction and evaluation of chemical relational databases on toxicological endpoints. Implementation and evaluation of in silico methods (e.g., QSAR, read across, grouping, AOP and IATA approaches) for their application in risk assessment of chemicals, including nanoforms.
Internal (ISS) consultant for in silico methods.
Predictive toxicology applied to nanomaterials; FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) principles and their application to nanosafety data.

National expert in OECD groups: Emerging Science in Chemicals Assessment - ESCA (chair), Omics Expert Group, QSAR Expert Group, IATA Case Studies Project, WPMN (co-head of delegation)
