Say hi to our team

Ernesto Picardi is Full Professor of Molecular Biology at the University of bari Aldo Moro and works is in the field of Omic Sciences, Bioinformatics and Molecular Evolution. He deals with the development of new bioinformatics methodologies and specialized databases to investigate transcriptome and epitranscriptome dynamics in eukaryotic genomes. His research activity focuses on the analysis of transcriptomic and epitranscripromic data produced through novel massive sequencing technologies for the study of gene expression and post-transcriptional modifications such as alternative splicing, RNA editing and RNA modifications.

Raffaele Calogero is a Full Professor of Molecular Biology at the University of Turin. He is the head of the Bioinformatics and Genomics Core Lab (BGcore) at the Center for Molecular Biotechnology of the University of Turin. Professor Calogero’s current research focuses on reproducibility in bioinformatics. He is a member of the management board of ELIXIR Italy, serves as the President of the Italian Society of Bioinformatics (BITS), and is a co-leader of the ELIXIR Single Cell Omics Community.
