Assistant Professor of Comparative Medicine and of Genetics

Biography

Mau is an Assistant Professor in Genetics and Comparative Medicine at Yale School of Medicine. His research focus is to understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms that govern tissue regeneration and repair in the lung, and how these pathways are hijacked in disease. His experience and expertise span multiple areas from biophysics and live-imaging microscopy to molecular biology, genetics, and human respiratory diseases. Mau is from Arezzo, Tuscany. He obtained his undergraduate degree at the University of Florence in Tuscany, before going on to obtain his PhD from the Institute for Molecular Bioscience at the University of Queensland in Australia. He then performed his postdoctoral studies at the Cavendish Laboratory, Physics of Medicine Institute at Cambridge University where he worked on the biophysical basis of dynamic ciliary beating in respiratory diseases such as cystic fibrosis and primary ciliary dyskinesia. He was recruited into the lab of Naftali Kaminski at Yale School of Medicine in 2018 where he focused primarily on establishing new techniques and approaches to investigate lung remodeling and repair. He was appointed Assistant Professor in Genetics and Comparative Medicine in September 2023.
