Why Is Paola Leone Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Paola Leone is an Italian researcher of Canavan disease, a leukodystrophy. Leone was born and raised in Cagliari, Italy. She received her undergraduate and graduate training in Italy, followed by post-doctoral studies in Montreal and Yale University in New Haven, CT. She holds a doctorate degree in Neuroscience from the University of Padua. Her work on Canavan disease started at Yale, where she collaborated with other early pioneers in gene therapy. She left Yale in 1998 to join the Cell & Gene Therapy Center at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia. She directs The Cell & Gene Therapy Center at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.
