Monika Fuxreiter

Monika Fuxreiter is a Professor at the Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Padova, Italy, and previously held a Professorship at the University of Debrecen, Hungary. She obtained an MSc in Chemistry (1993) and PhD in Chemistry (1996) from Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, followed by a DSc in Biology from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (2013). Her research focuses on intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), particularly 'fuzzy complexes,' protein evolution, dynamics, and regulatory network rewiring. She has held postdoctoral and visiting positions at institutions such as the University of Southern California, Weizmann Institute, and MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology.
