His research activity is devoted to the investigation of molecular mechanisms involved in vascular and cardiometabolic diseases and their connection with immunometabolism from a translational perspective. He coordinates the activities at the Laboratory of Lipoproteins, Atherosclerosis and Immunity at the Department of Pharmacological and Biomolecular Sciences in Milan and those of the Laboratory of Cardiovascular Genetics and Genomics at the Center for The Study of Atherosclerosis at the Bassini Hospital. He published more than 190 papers in the field of cardiovascular and immunometabolic diseases (including Science, Nature Genetics, Immunity, Cell Metabolism, European Heart Journal, Nature Communication, PNAS) and participated as speaker and/or chairmen in several national and international meetings. He is the Co-Chair of the Congress Committee of the European Society of Atherosclerosis. He is a Nucleus Member of the Working group on Atherosclerosis and Vascular Biology of the European Society of Cardiology and a member of the Faculty of the International Atherosclerosis Research School. Prof. Norata’s research projects are supported by several international and national competitive grants from the Horizon 2020, EFSD, Italian Ministry of Health, Italian Ministry of Research, the Telethon Foundation, the Cariplo Foundation.
