• What is David Porciani's job title?

  David Porciani is a #Aptamers #SELEX #Oligonucleotides #RNATherapeutics #TargetedDelivery #ProteinBiomarker #Nanomedicine My academic training and research experience have provided me with an excellent background in multiple disciplines including chemical biology, molecular biophysics, nanomedicine, and cancer biology. I studied at the University of Pisa (Italy), where in 2010 I earned a Master’s degree in Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Technology (110/110 cum Laude). In 2016, I obtained a PhD in molecular biophysics from the Scuola Normale Superiore of Pisa (70/70 cum Laude), one of the three schools of excellence in Italy, with a thesis entitled ‘Aptamers against transferrin receptor: rational engineering of nanoscale platforms for targeted delivery of molecular payloads’ with supervisors Professor Fabio Beltram and Dr. Giovanni Signore. In April 2016, I joined the lab of Professor Donald Burke at the University of Missouri (MU) as postdoctoral researcher. In October 2020, I was awarded a non-tenure track Assistant Research Professorship in the department of Molecular Microbiology & Immunology at the MU. During my PhD training and postdoc experience, my scientific interests have focused on improving precision of tumor cell targeting and targeted cancer therapy using aptamer technology. In May 2023, I joined SomaLogic Inc. as Senior Scientist. At SomaLogic (Standard BioTools since Jan. 2024), I am focused on SELEX of chemically-modified aptamers (SOMAmers) and assay development to improve protein biomarker detection. I am also involved in custom SELEX projects and I help contracting the use of SOMAmers for applications that go beyond the SomaScan assay. I am a very passionate scientist that loves to work in a collaborative and inclusive environment and thrive on intellectual curiosity and idea generation.
