    Courses

    Research topics

    Tiziana Sanavia works on machine (deep) learning approaches for personalized medicine and to analyze molecular data, focusing on Next-generation sequencing data analysis (expertise on whole genome/exome sequencing, epigenomic data and RNA sequencing).

    She was visiting scientist at Computational Biology and Informatics Laboratory at Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia, USA), from 2012 to 2013, working on dynamic RNA-seq and epigenomic data for monitoring the development and maturation of pancreatic cells. From 2016 to 2019 she was employed as senior post-doctoral fellow at the Department of Biomedical Informatics, Harvard Medical School (Boston, USA), focusing my research activity on the analysis of whole-genome/exome sequencing data on cancer and neurological diseases. She participated in several international consortia (including NIH and NHGRI programs) and she is currently involved in European Projects related to personalized early risk prediction, prevention, and intervention based on Artificial Intelligence and Big Data technologies.
