Simone Sidoli, PhD profile page

Simone Sidoli is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Biochemistry at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. In 2014, he joined Ben Garcia’s lab, located within the Epigenetics Institute at the University of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia, PA, USA). In this environment hosting many worldwide famous experts in epigenetics, he investigated human disease systems by developing a proteomics and computational pipeline to link cell signaling cascades (protein phosphorylation) with chromatin changes (histone modifications). He also applied this methodology to identify the regulated proteome during host viral infection. These methods include improvements in quantification accuracy of histone codes, enhancement of throughput, quantification of chromatin accessibility and follow-up optimization of the middle-down MS strategy. Simone has been a member of the American Society of Mass Spectrometry (ASMS), HUman Proteome Organization (HUPO) and the New York Academy of Sciences (NYAS). Simone joined the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in February 2019, and he kick-started the lab officially in July 2019. He joined the Einstein Comprehensive Cancer Center, the Nathan Shock Institute for Aging Research, the Einstein-Rockefeller-CUNY Center for AIDS Research and the Einstein Institute for Neuroimmunology and Inflammation. Since April 2020, he is also the Scientific Director of the Proteomics Core.
