Prisca Liberali is an Italian chemist who is a senior group leader at the Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research.[1] Her research takes a systems biology approach to understand the behaviour of multi-cellular systems. She was awarded the EMBO Gold Medal and EMBO Membership in 2022.
Liberali was born in Belgium, and grew up between Belgium and Luxembourg.[2] Her parents worked for the European Union. She attended the Sapienza University of Rome, where she studied physical organic chemistry.[2] She moved to the Mario Negri Institute for Pharmacological Research, where she worked toward a doctorate in cell biology with Daniela Corda. Her doctorate looked at the mechanisms that regulate the function of the carboxy-terminal binding protein 3/brefeldin A-ribosylated substrate (CtBP3/BARS) in the membrane fission of mammal cells and was awarded by the Open University.[3] Her PhD used high-contrast screening and mapping of genetics interactions.[2]
