Dr. Camandola received her Ph.D. in biology and pathology of aging from a joint program of the University of Turin and the University of Genoa, Italy. Her graduate work focused on the role played by radicals and lipid peroxidation end products in the pathogenesis of liver diseases. She then trained as a neurobiologist at the Sanders-Brown Center on Aging at the University of Kentucky and the Laboratory of Neurosciences at the National Institute on Aging (NIA). Before joining CSR, Dr. Camandola was a staff scientist at the NIA, and her research effort was identifying the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying neurodegenerative disorders in order to develop and test interventions that could delay/prevent their onset or progression.
