Enzo Mameli, Ph.D.

I hold a BSc in Biotechnologies from the University of Sassari and an MSc in Medical Biotechnologies from the University of Rome “La Sapienza”. I completed my PhD training between the University of Perugia and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health under Dr. Flaminia Catteruccia, where I studied molecular aspects of the reproductive biology of Anopheles gambiae. In the Perrimon Lab, I contribute to the development of CRISPR-based functional genomic screening platforms in mosquito and other arthropod cell systems and apply them to identify host factors regulating arboviral infection and to uncover genetic and molecular pathways enabling species-selective vector control strategies.
