Claudio Ciofi graduated from Natural Sciences at the University of Florence. She has a M.Sc. In Conservation Biology and a Ph.D. in Conservation Genetics at the University of Kent at Canterbury, UK, working at laboratories at the Zoological Society of London. He obtained two Post-Doctoral Fellowships in USA, the first at Smithsonian Institution and the second at Yale University. Returning to Italy thanks to the program of the Return of Brains is a researcher at the Department of Biology at the University of Florence where he teaches Molecular Ecology and Population Genetics. At the University of the same name, he created a Molecular Ecology Lab applied to wildlife management and conservation studies. He co-sponsored the development of the first national laboratory of molecular genetics applied to wildlife research in Indonesia. The main lines of research relate to the description of the dynamics of animal colonization and dispersion, population structure, kinetic analysis and the study of the animal genome for the identification of genes involved in fitness components and in the body's responses to Pollutants and pathogens. The animal species studied include the Komodo halibut in Indonesia, the giant Galapagos turtles, wolf, mustelids, marine tartargoes, turtle turtles, delfinides, central american pearls, carrots, moths and mites. It has 40 international scientific publications including The main lines of research relate to the description of the dynamics of animal colonization and dispersion, population structure, kinetic analysis and the study of the animal genome for the identification of genes involved in fitness components and in the body's responses to Pollutants and pathogens.
