Marco
"As an exchange student, I joined the lab for a one year long Master's thesis project. I am really delighted to have had the chance to be here. The opportunity to gain experience in a lab abroad from your home country is an incredibly valuable asset and the Brancaccio Lab is a thriving place to start from.”
Tenzin
“As an undergraduate student, I have learned a lot from this experience, ranging from practical lab skills to analysing and reporting data, for which I’m grateful for. I have also been very lucky to receive a lot of guidance from my colleagues who have made my stay overwhelmingly pleasant. I would definitely recommend any student to get in touch with this team if they are interested in circadian clocks and their impact on dementia."

Neta
"My research project involved elucidating the link between microglial senescence and circadian rhythm disruption in Alzheimer’s disease. Throughout such, I have developed invaluable skills varying from practical technique to critical thinking. I am very grateful for the lessons learnt and the supportive guidance I was provided with by the entire lab and in particular, my supervisors Natalie Ness and Dr Brancaccio."
