Samuele Bovo obtained his master degree with Laude in Bioinformatics at the University of Bologna in the year 2013, discussing a thesis on "Biomarkers identification in Pig: Metabolomics meets Genomics for the characterization of an animal model". At the same university, he obtained in the year 2018 the PhD in Biotechnological and Pharmaceutical Sciences (focused in Bioinformatics) discussing a thesis on the "Development of computational methods for biological complexity". He is a former member of the Bologna Biocomputing Group (led by Prof. Rita Casadio), where he developed tools relying on protein-protein interaction networks for the analysis of genomic, proteomic and metabolomic data.
His main activities (carried out in the laboratory of Prof. Luca Fontanesi) regard the analysis of omic data (genomes, proteomes, metabolomes and metagenomes) from different animals (pigs, cattle, rabbits, fishes and bees) and their derivates (meat, milk, cheese and honey).
