Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaola Roncaglia is a scientific curation consultant and bioinformatician with 13 years of experience uniting biomedical ontology development, large-scale data curation and semantic enrichment to make complex biological data FAIR and interoperable. She has driven ontology modeling and tooling at EMBL-EBI and now consults for SciBite, bringing hands-on expertise in Gene Ontology design, cross-ontology integration, and quality-controlled annotation pipelines. Her background spans genomics, neurobiology and biophysics, giving her a rare ability to elicit domain knowledge from experts and translate it into computable models and analyses. Paola has led international projects that combine training, experiment design and collaborator coordination, and she frequently bridges biology and chemistry ontologies to extend analytic scope. Comfortable both with hands-on data analysis and high-level modeling strategy, she excels at turning biological nuance into robust, reusable data representations. Based in Trieste, Italy, she pairs academic rigor (PhD in Biophysics/Neurobiology) with practical consultancy across research and industry.
