Germano Cecere

Germano Cecere received his BSc degree in Biotechnology from the University of Naples “Federico II” in Italy in 2004, and his Ph.D. from University of Rome “La Sapienza” in 2008. He started to work on RNA silencing phenomena and small RNAs during his graduate study in the laboratory of Dr. Carlo Cogoni. After completing his Ph.D., he joined the laboratory of Dr. Alla Grishok at Columbia University for his postdoctoral work. There, he studied chromatin- and RNA-mediated epigenetic mechanisms, using C. elegans as a model organism. He is currently the head of the “Mechanisms of epigenetic inheritance” team at Institute Pasteur in Paris, in the Department of Developmental and Stem Cell Biology. His main interest is in studying how epigenetic information is propagated across generations and in exploring the role of inherited small RNAs in the transmission of traits across generations.
