Gaia Favero
Dr. Gaia Favero is a prominent scientist in the field of life sciences. She is currently a researcher for the Scientific-Disciplinary Sector BIO/16 Human Anatomy at the Anatomy and Pathophysiology Division, Department of Clinical and Experimental Sciences, University of Brescia, Italy. Dr. Favero is involved in several crucial topics on morphology, anatomy, and molecular medicine. She focuses her research on aging-related morphological dysfunctions as the prelude to various pathophysiological processes. The central hypothesis is that natural antioxidants may act as molecular “switches” that modulate cells, tissues, and organs by suppressing, at various levels, oxidative stress and inflammatory signaling cascades. This research approach represents powerful tools for developing innovative preventive strategies and identifying novel prognostic biomarkers for several diseases. During her research residency program, Dr. Favero completed an internship at the Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, Health Science Campus, University of Toledo Medical Center, USA). She has about 150 scientific publications to her credit.
