Viviana Mitarotonda obtained her MSc degree in April 2021 in Pharmacy at the University of Bari with discussing an experimental thesis in pharmaceutical chemistry entitled “Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of dual ligand CB2/HDAC”. In January 2022 she started a II Level Master Course at the University of Pavia in “Design and development of drugs” and spent a six month Traineeship period at HIPS (Saarbrücken) in the Drug Design and Optimization (DDOP) department under the supervision of Prof Anna K.H.Hirsch focusing on the synthesis and characterization of HuR protein ligand. Since March 2023, she started her PhD in Medicinal Chemistry at University of Bologna. Her PhD activities are planned in the framework of PNRR extended partnership (PE) 12 titled MNESYS, and she is focused on the design and development of PROteolysis-Targeting Chimeras (PROTAC) directed to specific neuroinflammatory targets as a possible therapeutic treatment for Alzheimer's disease.
