Anna Sapino received her medical degree from the University of Turin, Italy (1982) and specialized in Pathological Anatomy and Histology at the University of Milan, Italy (1986). In 1987, she worked at the Michigan Cancer Foundation, Detroit, USA, and at Columbia University, New York, USA. From 1998 to 2004, Dr. Sapino was Associate Professor and since 2005she is a full professor of Pathological Anatomy and Histology at the University of Torino. Dr. Sapino's research mainly focuses on experimental and clinical pathological studies on breast cancer and, most recently, on prognostic and predictive factors in breast cancer. Since 2016, she has been the president elect of the Italian Society of Pathology and Cytology. Presently, Dr. Sapino is Scientific Director of the Institute of Cancer Research (FPO-IRCCs Candiolo, Torino, Italy).
