Silvia Cappello is an Associate Professor at the Biomedical Center of Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. Her research primarily focuses on molecular and cellular mechanisms that govern the development of the human brain, with a particular interest in neurogenesis and neuronal migration. Through her studies on genetic mutations that influence brain development, Prof. Cappello aims to uncover the fundamental mechanisms essential for proper brain development and to enhance the understanding of neurodevelopmental disorders. Prior to her current role, she led a research group at the Max Planck Institute of Psychiatry in Munich. Her academic journey also includes a postdoctoral position at Columbia University, New York, and a doctoral degree in Pharmacology and Toxicology from the University of Padua, Italy. Prof. Cappello's work is pivotal in identifying how specific genes affect brain formation and function over time, contributing significantly to the field of developmental neuroscience.
