Dr. Molino studied at the University of Palermo, Italy, receiving a BSc, MSc, and PhD in Biotechnology, working on molecular cancer projects. While studying he also held a variety of research positions working with the Dept. of Medical Oncology, and the Dept. of Genetics. He completed an internship studying lipid biology and working on Fabry disease at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, Spain, and returned the next year on a scholarship supporting his work in a foreign laboratory. His interest in Biotechnology, Lysosomal Storage Disease, and Cancer Research led him to a post-doctoral fellow position with Dr. Jeffrey Medin (known for the “first-in-the-world” gene therapy trial for the treatment of Fabry disease) at the Medical College of Wisconsin, were he was involved in a variety of projects as a postdoctoral fellow. After his postdoc, Dr. Molino moved to the laboratory of Dr. Christopher Chitambar PhD, MD, were He got promoted to a role of Research Scientist. Here, the focus of his study is pediatric cancer. His study conducted to the launch of a phase I/II clinical trial of Gallium Maltolate for the treatment of relapsed and refractory glioblastoma.
