Compagni

After receiving a degree in Biology from the University of Pavia, I moved to Vienna, Austria for a PhD in Genetics working on cancer genetics at the Institute of Molecular Pathology. After my PhD (1995-2000) I spent my post-doctoral fellowship at Cancer Research UK, in London, where I worked on the genetics of development (2000-2004). I then decided that it was time to shift to the social sciences, and, in order to gain new knowledge, I attended the Master in International Health Management, Economics and Policy (MIHMEP) at Bocconi University (2006). The course made me certain that studying public management and, in particular its applications to the healthcare sector, was exactly what I wanted to do.
