MARKOPOLO Project: Understanding Environmental Stressors and Health

Our lab proudly contributes to the MARKOPOLO Project, an EU-funded initiative investigating how traffic noise and air pollution, particularly fine and ultrafine particulate matter, impact human health. Focusing on the brain-heart axis and chronic diseases, we aim to identify biomarkers and unravel the molecular mechanisms behind these stressors.
Our work aims to identify disease-relevant biomarkers and causality mechanisms to understand the biological pathways underlying cerebral, pulmonary, and cardiovascular health outcomes. Using advanced proteomics and redox proteomics, we bridge experimental models with clinical insights to drive meaningful advancements.
