Laura Teodori

born in Rome in 1953, graduated in Biology cum laude in 1976 at the University of Rome. In the years 1979-1980 she was a postdoctoral fellow at the MD Anderson Hospital Cancer Research Institute, University of Texas, USA, working on the application of the multiparametric flow cytometry (FC) on the detection of early diagnostic cellular neoplastic markers. In 1981 she was a guest researcher at the Institute of Radiobiology, University of Muenster, where she became a world-recognized expert, working with Prof. Göhde, one of the FC inventors.

A pioneer of FC, she contributed to the development of the FC technique in Italy and worldwide. She has scientific collaboration with several international leading groups (e.g. University of Muenster, - Prof. Göhde and University of Heidelberg Dr Ehemann, Mount Sinai of New York). She works in Rome at ENEA, National Agency for Energy and Environment. She teaches "Cytometry" at the School of Oncology, Medical Faculty, University of Rome. She is the author of 49 publications in peer-reviewed journals.
