Research summary
AI-generated

Michela Garofalo's research focuses on non-coding RNAs, such as microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs, and their roles in cancer, particularly lung cancer and medulloblastoma (a type of brain tumor). Work in this area examines how these RNA molecules and related proteins regulate tumor cell growth, spread (metastasis), and resistance to treatment. The publication record also includes studies on RNA changes in cerebrospinal fluid of pediatric spinal muscular atrophy patients following treatment.

Publication output was relatively steady at 4-5 papers per year from 2017-2022, spiked sharply to 32 in 2023 (likely including many supplementary dataset entries tied to a single paper), then dropped to just 1 per year in 2024 and 2025.
