RESEARCH ACTIVITY
Raffaele Calogero is the PI of the Bioinformatics and Genomics core lab (BGcore) at Molecular Biotechnology Center in Torino. He is the co-founder of the Reproducible Bioinformatics Project, a community of scientists devoted to the development of reproducible bioinformatics workflows in the area of genomics. The actual main research focus of Prof. Calogero is reproducibility in single-cell data analysis. Spatial transcriptomics and single-cell multiOMICs workflow development.
