Biography
Bianca Marchetti is a Researcher at the Università degli Studi di Catania, Catania, Sicilia, Italy, with over 11 indexed publications focused on neurodegenerative disease mechanisms and therapeutic strategies. Her research examines the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling, neuroimmune interactions, and astrocyte-neuron crosstalk in Parkinson's disease pathology, neuroprotection, and neurorepair. Her work explores microRNAs, neuroplasticity in nigrostriatal degeneration, and the modulation of microglial and astrocytic phenotypes to promote dopaminergic neuron survival and restoration in aging and disease models. Her most-cited publication, "microRNAs in Parkinson's Disease: From Pathogenesis to Novel Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approaches" (2017), has received 204 citations, reflecting significant impact in the field of neurodegenerative research.
