In this talk Marzia shares her creative process in art and in science and how to juggle two careers.

Marzia earned her Bachelor’s in Biology and Master’s in Genetics and Molecular Biology from Sapienza University of Rome in 2015. She then worked as a Research Assistant in Prof. Richard Gregory’s lab at Boston Children’s Hospital, studying RNA quality control in mouse embryonic stem cells.

In 2016, she began her PhD with Prof. Greg Hannon at the University of Cambridge, focusing on small RNA-mediated transposon silencing in the fly ovary. Since 2020, she has been a postdoctoral fellow in Dr. Jamie Hackett’s group at EMBL Rome, researching oocyte epigenetics.

Alongside her scientific work, she has also been a scientific illustrator since 2020, creating cover art and visuals for journals and labs worldwide.
