Selene Lomoio is a Research Assistant Professor in Neuroscience at Tufts University School of Medicine. Her work focuses on Alzheimer’s disease mechanisms, particularly the role of GGA3 protein in axonal trafficking of BACE1. She collaborates with Dr. G. Tesco and Dr. D. Kaplan on 3D neural tissue models using patient-derived iPSCs grown in silk-collagen scaffolds. Key affiliations include the Tufts University School of Medicine and the Tesco laboratory. Education: B.S./M.S./Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences/Neurobiology/Cell Biology from University of Pavia (2006-2012). Postdoctoral training at Tufts University (2013-2019).
Research Interests: Alzheimer’s pathogenesis, BACE1 regulation, GGA3 function, axonopathy, iPSC-derived neural models, mitochondrial-endoplasmic reticulum interactions.
Grants: NIH funding for cell-type specific AD variants study (2020-2025), BrightFocus Foundation support for GGA3/BACE1 research (2016-2018).
