Curriculum

Research interests
During the years after the PhD, Massimiliano Perduca further studied the structural and functional analysis of proteins from different organisms involved in illness or that can be used as drugs for treating tumoral diseases, resulting to the publication of several papers.
More recently he have been involved in research projects concerning the differential gene expression in healty and pathological cells.
Currently he is also involved in projects based on synthesis and phisico-chemical characterization of nanostructures for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and hydrogen production use.
