About
Carla Distasi is Associate Professor in the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences at Università degli Studi del Piemonte Orientale. Her research investigates calcium signaling mechanisms in neurological disorders, particularly chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.
Her laboratory focuses on endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria interactions, ion channel regulation, and cellular responses to neurotoxic agents. Recent NIH-funded projects examine how chemotherapeutic drugs alter calcium homeostasis in sensory neurons.
Publications in Cell Calcium (2025) and Communications Biology (2024) demonstrate her work on paclitaxel neurotoxicity mechanisms and organelle dynamics. This research aims to identify therapeutic targets for neuropathic pain management.
