Mara Cenerenti
Postdoctoral researcher
I hold a B.S. in Biological Science from the University of Milan-Bicocca and an M.S. in Molecular Biotechnology and Bioinformatics from the University of Milan. In 2024, I completed the PhD at the University of Geneva (Switzerland), where I investigated the cytotoxic properties of tumor-specific CD4 T cells in human melanoma in the laboratory of Prof. Camilla Jandus. Currently, I am a Postdoctoral Scientist at the Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine (WIMM) at the University of Oxford, working in the laboratory of Prof. Ronjon Chakraverty on pioneering advancements in T cell therapeutics.
