Alessandro Ori
Role: Dr
Organisation: Liebniz Institute on Aging
Biography: Alessandro Ori holds a PhD in Biochemistry and he was a postdoctoral fellow at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory in the laboratory of Martin Beck. During his postdoc, he applied mass spectrometry-based proteomics to answer fundamental questions in the fields of structural and systems biology and pioneered the integration of omics data to study aging. He joined the Leibniz Institute on Aging in Jena in September 2015 where he is leading a junior research group and heading the proteomic unit. His current research aims at the identification of mechanisms of aging focusing on the proteostasis network in the aging brain and the cross-talk between adult stem cells and their niches.
