Hello! I am Sara, an Italian student from Rome, where I just got my Bachelor’s Degree in Biological Sciences at Sapienza University. I joined Cecere’s lab as an Erasmus trainee in January due to my fascination with epigenetics. I am excited to learn new techniques and explore new subjects. During my internship, I will try to identify the proteins that interact with the nuclear Argonaute HRDE-1 in C. elegans, which promotes transgenerational silencing effects. I feel fortunate to be able to spend six months at Institut Pasteur in such a friendly and challenging environment!
