Biosketch: Leonardo Tenori, born in 1977, obtained his master’s degree in chemistry in 2002 at the University of Florence, and the International PhD in Structural Biology in 2008 at the University of Florence. He has been Researcher at the Interuniversitary Consortium for Magnetic Resonance of Metallo Proteins (CIRMMP, University of Florence, Italy), and he joined the faculty at the Department of Chemistry of the University of Florence as RTDb lecturer in September 2020 and as Associate Professor in 2023.
Leonardo Tenori is skilled in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and in metabolomics, especially in its applications to biomedicine, pharmacology and agricultural sciences. He investigated several pathological conditions including celiac disease (demonstrating that a metabolic signature of celiac disease exist in the serum and in the urine of patients), breast cancer (showing the possibility to predict disease relapse) and cardiovascular diseases (especially for the use of metabolomics in the early prediction of heart failure). He is also skilled in multivariate statistical analysis and he contributed to the development of a new statistical algorithm for knowledge discovery published in PNAS. In 2015 he was awarded with a Fellowship of the Italian Foundation “Veronesi” for the study of the metabolomic alterations in melanoma patients. He has collaboration with researchers and clinicians at local, national and international level.
Roles: Spoke 2 WP4 Task 4.7 leader.
