Anna Melidoni

Anna studied Biology, with an emphasis on Cell/Molecular/Developmental Biology at the University of Crete, Greece. During her PhD in Queen Mary, University of London she worked on the knockout of Flavin-containing monoxygenase 5 (Fmo5) gene of the mouse, which eventually led to the identification of Fmo5 as a regulator of metabolic aging. As a Postdoc at the Universities of Ioannina, Greece and the University of Cambridge, UK she worked on the role of cell-surface receptors (Wnt/Notch/FGF4) and adherens junctions in the fate specification of mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells and mES-derived multipotent cardiac progenitors. She also worked in the development of an ES-cell-based expression and reporting system for the identification of functional antibodies that control stem cell differentiation from antigen-binding populations preselected with phage display. Anna is a Manuscript editor in a wide range of BMC series journals since March 2019.


Highlights of the BMC Series: January 2020

With another month of cutting edge, high impact research, we look back on just a few highlights from articles published across the BMC Series in January. Men’s grief following pregnancy loss and neonatal loss • Spontaneous embryo resorption in the mouse • Post-traumatic stress disorder among US military • How people living with dementia achieve and maintain independence at home • Impacts of a novel integrated extracorporeal-CPR workflow.
Men’s grief following pregnancy loss and neonatal loss: a systematic review and emerging theoretical model.
What do we know about men’s experiences of grief following pregnancy/neonatal loss? And what are the factors/predictors that contribute to men’s grief? Philippa Middleton and co-workers in a paper published in BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth set out to answer these two questions by performing a systematic review of the existing literature.
