She obtained an MD from the University of Milan and certified in Pediatrics and Nephrology at Milan University. She received her PhD in Renal Physiopathology at Paris 7 University and did a postdoctoral training on molecular biology at the Institut Cochin de Génétique Moléculaire in Paris. Since 2008, she leads the team “Chronic Kidney Disease: mechanisms and therapeutics” at Necker campus in Paris, France. From 2014 to 2019, she headed the Department of Cell Biology at Institut Necker Enfants Malades, in Paris. Since 2020, she is the director of the institute. She has been awarded with the « Grand Prix de l’Académie Nationale de Médecine » and « Prix de la Fondation du Rein ».

Since 2015, Fabiola Terzi is the Editor of Nephron Experimental Nephrology. Her major research interests are the mechanisms that control the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Towards this goal, she has pioneered in developing several experimental models of CKD that led to the discovery of signaling pathways critically involved in CKD progression and are at the basis of innovative high throughput pharmacological screening. Fabiola Terzi has also fostered several translational studies aiming at identifying novel biomarkers and targets of CKD progression in humans.
