August 2019 Featured Investigator

Chiara Fabbri, MD, PhD

Postdoctoral Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow
King’s College London
Dr. Chiara Fabbri is a postdoctoral Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellow at King’s College London (United Kingdom). Her current research project (ESTREA: https://www.kcl.ac.uk/ioppn/depts/sgdp-centre/research/estrea) aims to study the contribution of rare and common genetic variants to the risk of developing treatment-resistant depression, a condition that is observed in up to 30% of depressed patients.
The mission of the Pharmacogenomics Research Network (PGRN) is to catalyze and lead research in precision medicine for the discovery and translation of genomic variation influencing therapeutic and adverse drug effects.​​
