Sara Mariotto
Her research areas include neuroimmunology, neurodegenerative disorders,
neuroinfectivology, and neuropathology. Her principal field of interest is the
study of autoimmune/paraneoplastic encephalitis and encephalomyelitis.
During her fellowship at the Clinical Department of Neurology, Medical
University of Innsbruck (March-October 2017) she studied antibody-
mediated disorders of the CNS under the supervision of Prof. Markus Reindl,
learning anti-MOG antibodies detection/IgG subclass analysis with cell based
assay, peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolation and the detection of cytokines in serum
and CSF with ELISA. She also spent a period (October 2017) at the Institute of Neurology,
Medical University of Vienna learning new techniques for the diagnosis of autoimmune
encephalitis, under the supervision of Prof. Romana Höftberger
Tiziana Cotrufo
Visiting Professor. Her research interests mainly include the study of
guidance receptors and SNARE proteins in neurodevelopment,
neuroregeneration and neurodegenerative diseases. A recent line of research
is the involvement of SNARE proteins in migration of cancer cells.
