Danila Capoccia is a Researcher at the Department of Medical-Surgical Sciences and Biotechnologies, Sapienza University of Rome. Her work focuses on obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic disorders, with key themes including gut microbiota dynamics, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and bariatric surgery outcomes. She investigates sociocultural factors in obesity, sex-based therapies, and liver disease diagnostics.

Her research integrates metabolic surgery, endocrinology, and hepatology, with recent studies on non-invasive liver fibrosis assessments and microbiota shifts post-surgery. Publications highlight type 3c diabetes challenges, social isolation in chronic disease, and sex-specific drug responses.

Her work also addresses clinical guidelines for diabetes remission and public health barriers in obesity management. Collaborative studies with European institutions and multicenter trials underscore her methodological rigor.
