Professor Taccioli is an Associate Professor at the University of Padua and is head of the MAPS Bioinformatics Laboratory. The MAPS Bioinformatics Laboratory is part of the M.A.P.S. Department (Department of Animal Medicine, Production and Health) of the University of Padua. Professor Taccioli holds a Bachelor's degree in "Molecular Biology," a Ph.D. in "Molecular Pharmacology and Oncology," and a Master's degree in "Biostatistics." He has previously worked at the University of Bologna, University of Ferrara, University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, The Ohio State University (OSU) and University College London (UCL). His research activity is mainly in genomics (including genomics of cancer and inherited diseases) and population genetics using bioinformatics methodologies. His group performs biostatistical analyses using data obtained from NGS sequencing such as: Whole Genome Sequencing, Whole Exome Sequencing, RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq and Single cell sequencing. Lately, he is also working on transposable elements and structural genomics and Chargaff's II parity rule. The programming languages used to develop tools are: Python, R and C++. Special attention is given to mathematical models used in the field of Artificial Intelligence (Machine Learning methods).
