Dr Simone Marcone is a Senior Research Fellow and Lecturer in Translational Oncology in the Department of Surgery at Trinity College Dublin. He obtained his BSc (Hons) in Pharmaceutical chemistry in 2007 in “La Sapienza” University in Rome-Italy, and a PhD in molecular medicine at University College Dublin in 2013.
Simone is an experienced cancer researcher with expertise in cancer biology and precision medicine approaches towards the development of novel diagnostic platforms and therapeutic strategies to treat cancer. His highly inter-disciplinary research lies at the interface between cell and molecular biology, medicinal chemistry & translational research, and has led to the
development of important research models in the cancer space.
Simone`s research focusses on two main thematic areas: the elucidation of the mechanisms regulating cancer development and progression; and the use of translational research for the discovery and development of novel diagnostics and therapeutics.
Simone`s research current goals are to develop novel nanotherapeutics to increase the response to radiotherapy in those oesophageal cancer patients with a poor response to treatment, and to determine the mechanisms regulating resistance to cancer treatment.
