Greta Visintin

Greta, born in 1994, has always been fascinated by the mysteries of science since she was a child. This interest led her to study medical biotechnologies at the Vita-Salute San Raffaele University in Milan, where she found answers to many of the questions that fueled her curiosity. However, numerous questions still remain open, and this motivates her to continue her research to find possible answers.

Greta began her career as a researcher, obtaining a PhD in Neuroscience at the Italian Institute of Technology, in collaboration with the University of Genoa. She is particularly fascinated by the brain, the most complex organ of the human body, and her research focuses on the impact of stress on brain development.

Convinced of the importance of making science accessible to all, promoting its constant successes, and stimulating the curiosity of young people, Greta is proud to be a Young Ambassador for Women&Tech.
