He has experience in oncology-focused clinical trials, having worked as a research coordinator and study manager in both the public and private sectors. Paolo’s current academic interest in critical disability studies—a field deeply connected to social justice—ultimately led him to the Upstream Lab, where hopes to support efforts that drive systemic change.
