PhD STUDENTS
Marta Pavan
I am a third-year PhD student enrolled in the PhD Program in "Pharmaceutical and Biomolecular Sciences".
​
I graduated in the Master Degree Course in Cellular and Molecular Biology at the University of Turin.
​
My research focuses on the discovery and characterization of new antivirals.
​
I am eager of learning new things and techniques and combining various approaches, from working with cells, viruses, and drugs!
I am a third-year Ph.D. student enrolled in the Ph.D. Program "Sustainable development and cooperation", 38th cycle.
​
I graduated in Natural Sciences and got my Master in Plant Biotechnology at the University of Turin.
​
My research focuses on the study of the microbiota of the soil in urban environments, as part of the National Program "Biodiversity Urban Centers". In particular, my aim will be to quantify the spread and diversity of antimicriobial resistance in human-associated soils and to discover the factor majorly influencing them.
​
I can't wait starting to gather information on this interesting topic and collaborate with UniTO and National specialists on several aspects linked the natural and anthropogenic impact of my study.

Silvia Abbà
I am a second-year Ph.D. student enrolled in the Ph.D. Program "Sustainable development and cooperation", 40th cycle.
​
I graduated first in Biology and then in Plant Biotechnology at the University of Turin.
My research focuses on the study of the yeast-insect association, particularly between Saccharomyces cerevisiae and social wasps, aiming to understand the environmental spread and evolution of this useful yeast.
​
I am looking forward to delve into this topic, also thanks to the international collaborations set up with the HFSP project "The aphrodisiac gut".
​I am a first-year student in the "Bio-Chemical Sciences" PhD program.
I earned my master's degree in Cellular and Molecular Biology from the University of Turin.
My research project focuses on the characterization and study of compounds with broad-spectrum antiviral activity, with the aim of understanding their molecular mechanisms of action.
I begin this program with a strong motivation to acquire new laboratory techniques and expand my theoretical knowledge in the field of virology, through the study of various viruses and their replication mechanisms.
