Portici Unit, Research FellowRESEARCH FELLOW lorenzogoglia(AT)cnr.it publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae During my academic journey, I specialized in the morphological identification of Heterocera Lepidoptera, with a particular focus on the Tortricidae family. This specialization was reinforced through active participation in entomological expeditions conducted in various countries, including central and southern Italy, central-eastern Greece, Spain, and Ethiopia. Additionally, I contributed to the development of innovative techniques for managing Thaumetopoea pityocampa (Denis and Schiffermüller, 1775), an important forest parasite. In Greece, I also had the opportunity to participate in the…

During my PhD, I examined the endocannabinoid system in Alzheimer’s disease, specifically identifying the role of anandamide (AEA) in microglial polarization and its potential in mitigating cellular toxicity. In collaboration with Prof. Marcel Leist at the University of Konstanz (Germany), I studied neuroglial interactions that support neuronal resilience against proteotoxic stress,…

Portici Unit, Research FellowRESEARCH FELLOW valentinomariaguastaferro(AT)cnr.it publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae During my master’s degree I focused on the study of the beneficial interaction between Trichoderma – Brachypodium Distachyon through a molecular approach. In particular, the epigeal and hypogeal portions, taken separately from the plant, were used for the purpose of extracting RNA and sequencing it. The analysis of RNA-Seq data led to the identification of genes up- and down-regulated during the interaction of the plant with two different strains of Trichoderma. This work aims to identify genes…

The subject of this activity are the insect parasitoids, used in biological control programmes against pests. The main field of investigation include: a: volatile organic compounds regulating the interactions among plant-insect pest -insect parasitoid: insect parasitoids exploit plant volatile organic compounds to locate infested plants and then their victims. These interactions are studied mainly in tomato assessing the role of…

In particular, the activity consisted of two parallel studies concerning the assessment of the market and consumer preferences for innovative foods such as legume-based snacks. This is because both food companies and the consumer move their choices with regard to issues that are increasingly common today such as increased attention to health, the environment and therefore sustainability. And here on the market there are…
