Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatteo Cereda is a biomedical engineer and genomics-focused principal investigator with over 15 years of bioinformatics experience bridging computational and molecular biology. He leads RNA regulatory network research in translational oncology across IFOM, IIGM and the University of Milan, specializing in alternative splicing regulation, large-scale NGS and third-generation sequencing, and AI-driven analytical frameworks. Matteo builds and validates mechanistic models from complex, heterogeneous datasets—combining clonal reconstruction, RNA binding protein mapping and targeted-therapy insights—to advance personalized medicine. He is proficient across R, C++, Java, SQL, cloud and ML tooling, and has a track record of turning exploratory sequencing signals into experimentally validated hypotheses. His work on tools like RNAmotifs and contributions to splice-focused iCLIP and nanopore analyses reflect a long-standing interest in position-dependent post-transcriptional regulation. Based in Milan, he blends engineering rigor with translational goals to expand RNA-based therapeutic opportunities.
