معرفی
Laura Scalvini is a Research Fellow (Ricercatore a tempo determinato lettera b) at the Department of Food and Drug Sciences, University of Parma. She is actively involved in teaching advanced drug research courses and has co-chaired the Advanced School in Drug Research and Development since 2021. Her work bridges computational and experimental approaches to drug discovery, with a focus on enzyme and receptor targets relevant to fibrosis and cancer.
- Teaching roles since 2016: Drug Analysis I & II, Structure and Activity of Bioactive Compounds
- Molecular modeling expert in endocannabinoid/lipid mediator systems and kinase/protein-protein interaction inhibition
- Recipient of Premio Divisione di Chimica Farmaceutica (2022)
Her recent publications (2024-2025) demonstrate interdisciplinary expertise in histone deacetylase inhibitors, JAK3 interactions, EphA2 receptor targeting, FGF trap molecules, and melatonin receptor ligands. These works span computational methods (free-energy simulations, molecular docking) and biological validation in disease models.
Scientific Awards:
- Premio Divisione di Chimica Farmaceutica, Italian Chemical Society (2022)
