Work: Animal Mesenchymal Stem cells Assisted reproduction in domestic animals
Biographical: Dr. Eleonora Iacono, Department of Veterinary Medical Sciences, University of Bologna, Italy. 2002 Degree Veterinary Medicine at the University of Bologna, 21/03/2002. Thesis entitled "In vitro embryo production in bovine". Evaluation 110/110 cum laude. 20/07-20/10/2002 Three months scholarship at Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology Laboratory, Colorado State University. The research was on the use of different concentration of L-Lactate in the media used for in vitro embryo production and on the use of caspase-inhibitor in the media used for vitrification of the bovine embryos. 5/12/2002-5/12/2005 Research Grant Student on “New tool of superovulation and embryo cryopreservation in domestic animals”, at the Veterinary Clinical Department, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Bologna 2006-2009 PhD student on "Veterinary emergency Clinic and Therapy" at the Veterinary Clinical Department, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Bologna. Thesis entitled “Use of stem cells in veterinary medicine”. 01/11/2010 Researcher at the Department of Veterinary Medical Sciences, University of Bologna. SCIENTIFIC AND RESERCH ACTIVITIES: 2006-Present: Isolation and in vitro culture of mesechymal stem cells from blood, bone marrow, adipose tissue, cord blood, Wharton's jelly, amniotic fluid and fetal membranes in bovine, equine, cat and dog. Isolation and in vitro culture of prostatic cells in dog. 2001-Present: Ovum Pick Up, endometrial and follicular cysts reduction, twin pregnant reduction using transvaginal ultrasound guided aspiration, superovulation and embryo transfer in bovine and equine. In vitro embryo production in bovine, equine, and cat. Cryopreservation of bovine, equine, cat and dog gametes and embryos: production of different medium and extender; use of new tools of cryopreservation, such as vitrification in cryoloop; evaluation of post-freezing vitality, using in vitro fertilization and culture; evaluation of cell viability using Hoechst, Sybr-Propidium, Fitc-PSA and computer assisted analysis for spermatozoa. Use and evaluation of vitality and fertilizing ability of sex semen in bovine, equine, cat and dog.
