Biography:
Patrizia Ferretti is Professor of Regenerative Biology at UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health, University College London, UK. She studied at Pisa University and at the Mario Negri Institute for Pharmacological Research, Milan, Italy, prior to moving to the Max Planck Institute, Goettingen, Germany, and then to London. Her group has made sustained and internationally recognized contributions to the regeneration and rare disease field, by identifying cellular and molecular mechanisms which play a role in response to injury and repair and establishing human disease models using stem/progenitor cells. She has published over 130 papers.
