Mirella GiovarelliAttività di ricerca
Dr. Mara Compagno research is focused on the comprehension of the molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of B and T cell lymphomas.
Most hematopoietic cancers, but also an increasing number of solid tumors, are characterized by defined oncogenic events, such as chromosomal translocations. During her PhD program the main focus of her research was dedicated to elucidate the basic principles that underlie recurrent ALK (Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase) translocations in T cell lymphoma and solid tumors. Indeed, ALK rearrangements represent one of the few examples of a frequent oncogenic event in hematopoietic tumors that could transform and drive solid tumors too.
