Professor Alfredo Castello is a Professor in Systems Virology at the MRC-University of Glasgow Centre for Virus Research within the Institute of Infection, Immunity and Inflammation at the University of Glasgow's College of Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences. With an active research program and numerous recent publications, he leads the Castello Lab which focuses on understanding RNA-binding proteins in virus infection. Castello's research interests center around the critical role of cellular RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) in viral infections. His work reveals how viruses exploit host RBPs for replication while cells utilize RBPs as part of their antiviral defense. His lab employs innovative approaches to discover cellular proteins that interact with viral RNA during infection, combining cell and molecular biology, RNA biology, virology, and 'omic' technologies to understand host-virus interactions at a systems level. Analysis of Castello's recent publications shows a strong focus on RNA-protein interactions in viral infections across multiple viral systems including alphaviruses, HIV-1, SARS-CoV-2, and other RNA viruses. His work spans from fundamental RNA biology to translational applications, with particular emphasis on identifying host factors that could serve as targets for broad-spectrum antivirals. ERC consolidator Grant: Towards the discovery of cellular RNA-binding proteins with master regulatory roles in virus infection (2021-2026) MRC Career Development Award: Proteome-Wide Identification of RNA-Binding Proteins Playing Critical Roles in Virus Infection (2021-2022) Marie Curie postdoctoral fellowship: Structural basis of TRIM25 and RIPLET mediated antiviral response (2023) Castello actively supervises multiple PhD students and postdoctoral researchers in the Castello Lab, including Rozeena Arif, Namah Raut, Innes Jarmson, and others. His research group receives substantial funding through multiple grants including RBP-ReguNet (2023-2027) and Understanding the Roles of Cellular RNA-Binding Proteins in HIV-1 Infection (2023). The lab maintains active collaborations both within the University of Glasgow and with external institutions worldwide. The Castello Lab operates as a multidisciplinary research unit combining expertise in molecular virology, cellular biology, RNA biology, and computational approaches.

Maurizio Di Rocco serves as a Professor at the Faculty of Law, University of Trento, Italy, with institutional affiliation centered on legal theory and dispute resolution practice. His academic base is anchored at Via Verdi, 53 - 38122 Trento, with primary contact via university email. Academic Credentials: Law Degree, Faculty of Law, University of Padua (1995), thesis: "Regicide in the legal thought of J. Milton" with supplementary work in Banking Law and Public International Law Classical High School Diploma, State High School "R. Franchetti", Mestre-Ve (1986) Advanced qualifications: Civil/commercial mediator trainer (accredited under Legislative Decree 28/2010), plus specialized training from JAMS-Endispute (Boston, 1999), NCRC (San Diego, 2005), and Friedman/Himmelstein workshops (2010-2014) Professor Di Rocco's research forms the cornerstone of Italian Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) scholarship, with concentrated expertise in mediation systems design , sector-specific conflict resolution (telecommunications, insurance, medical liability), and consumer dispute mechanisms . His work bridges theoretical frameworks in legal philosophy with actionable procedural protocols, emphasizing cross-cultural negotiation dynamics and institutional implementation challenges. The trajectory of his scholarship reveals deepening specialization in extrajudicial resolution pathways since the early 2000s, with particular focus on legislative compliance and practical mediator competencies. Analysis of his 12 major publications (2003-2013) demonstrates three dominant research vectors: (1) Codification and refinement of Italian mediation frameworks through annual updated codes (2011-2012), (2) Sectoral adaptation of ADR mechanisms to high-conflict industries like telecom and healthcare, and (3) Consumer rights protection through structured conciliation systems. His collaborative works with Covata, Santi, and Marucci reveal consistent focus on civil/commercial dispute resolution, while solo publications establish foundational theories for mediator ethics and procedural justice. No scientific awards or major fellowships are documented in the source materials. Professor Di Rocco's advisory impact manifests through policy-shaping engagements rather than formal student supervision. His Ministry of Productive Activities-cofunded consumer rights project (2004) and CNCU-commissioned ISDACI research report (1999) demonstrate direct influence on Italian ADR legislative frameworks. Current consulting roles with the Venice Chamber of Arbitration and Forensic Conciliation Coordination continue this practical policy integration. As co-founder and Vice President of "RESOLUTIA – Gestione delle controversie" (2000-present), he directs an active dispute resolution consortium that operationalizes his academic work. The association functions as a living laboratory for testing mediation protocols across consumer, corporate, and regulatory contexts, maintaining close ties with the Venice Chamber of Commerce and Consumer Defense Movement.
