Associate Professor of Hematology
University of Milan/Policlinico Hospital , Italy
Niccolo Bolli is an associate professor of hematology at the University of Milan, and a consultant in hematology at the Fondazione Ca’ Granda IRCCS Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico, Milan, Italy.
He trained in Haematology at the University of Perugia in the laboratory of Prof. Brunangelo Falini, where he also developed research interests in the field of malignant haematopoiesis. Niccolo then moved to Boston, where he spent his PhD years in the laboratory of A. Thomas Look at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute/Harvard Medical School, conducting research in the zebrafish an animal model system to study alterations in haematopoiesis promoted by mutations in genes involved in leukemia and other genes involved in RNA processing and splicing. In 2011, Niccolo joined the University of Cambridge, UK, where he worked as a clinical lecturer in hematology and mostly performed research in the Cancer Genome Project led by Peter Campbell at the the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute. There, he studied the influence of splice factor genes mutations in haematopoiesis, and started a new field of research on multiple myeloma genomics. His work on myeloma genomics has been mostly focused on characterizing the genomic spectrum of alterations in this malignancy, and on the study of heterogeneity and clonal evolution from diagnosis to chemoresistant samples. In Milan, he is working as a clinician and is continuing research in the field of genomics of haematological malignancies, with particular focus on the evolutionary aspects of multiple myeloma. In more recent years. Niccolo has moved his interests into single-cell studies of residual mutliple myeloma cells after treatment, as well as of the tumor microenvironment in the context of clonal hematopoiesis and in different stages of plasma cell dyscrasias.
Niccolo authored 134 documents, and has an H-index of 44 (Scopus, March 2025).
