Her main field of interest is the diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory skin diseases. In 2013, Dr Dattola completed a 2-year fellowship at the Laboratory for Investigative Dermatology at the Rockefeller University, New York, NY.

Dr Dattola’s current research includes projects on biological agents for the treatment of psoriasis, laser and cosmetology. She is also involved in numerous phase III clinical trials and is author of many papers on these topics. She completed 3 years of research at the University of Rome Tor Vergata from 2018 to 2021.
