Overview

Giulio Gabbiani is affiliated with the University of Geneva in Switzerland and specializes in medical research with a focus on areas intersecting surgery, oncology, orthopedics and sports medicine, pulmonary and respiratory medicine, and rehabilitation. Their work prominently addresses topics within wound healing and treatments, tendon structure and treatment, interstitial lung diseases including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, pancreatic and hepatic oncology research, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, cancer research and treatments, and cellular mechanics and interactions.

Their publication record includes 33 works in the field of medicine, with frequent contributions to "Faculty Opinions - Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature," where they have published 22 articles. Additionally, they have published in "EMBO Molecular Medicine."

Examples of recent papers by Giulio Gabbiani include:

  • Faculty Opinions recommendation of A prognostic fibroblast-related risk signature in colorectal cancer, 2021, Faculty Opinions - Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature
  • Faculty Opinions recommendation of Vascular smooth muscle cells in atherosclerosis: Time for a reassessment, 2021, Faculty Opinions - Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature
  • Faculty Opinions recommendation of Wet-dry-wet drug screen leads to the synthesis of TS1, a novel compound reversing lung fibrosis through inhibition of myofibroblast differentiation, 2022, Faculty Opinions - Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature
  • Faculty Opinions recommendation of Myofibroblasts: function, formation, and scope of molecular therapies for skin fibrosis, 2021, Faculty Opinions - Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature
  • Faculty Opinions recommendation of Fibrous stroma: Driver and passenger in cancer development, 2022, Faculty Opinions - Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature

Collaborations have involved several co-authors, notably Matteo Coen and Fabio Zampieri, each with six joint publications, as well as Leonardo Martin and Guido R.Y. De Meyer, each with one.
