Fabio Sallustio | Medicine and Dentistry | Research Excellence Award

University of Bari Aldo Moro | Italy

Prof. Fabio Sallustio is an Associate Professor in Applied Medical Technical Science at the University of Bari “Aldo Moro,” where he conducts advanced research in renal biology and kidney diseases. His work primarily focuses on the genomic and functional characterization of adult renal stem/progenitor cells and their role in kidney repair, as well as the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying kidney disorders, particularly IgA nephropathy. He has made significant contributions to understanding how renal progenitor cells activate reparative processes, including identifying key pathways such as Toll-like receptor 2–mediated signaling and their role in tissue regeneration, fibrosis prevention, and immunomodulation. In parallel, his research on IgA nephropathy has advanced knowledge of disease pathogenesis through the identification of dysregulated molecular pathways, epigenetic alterations, and genetic variations. He leads a multidisciplinary research team and actively supervises students and doctoral researchers in the fields of medical biotechnology and molecular medicine.
