Stavroula "Voula" Mili is a Greek molecular biologist researching the regulation, functional consequences, and disease associations of localized RNAs. She is a NIH Stadtman Investigator at the National Cancer Institute.
Mili obtained her B.S. in Biology from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens and a Ph.D. degree in Biomedical Sciences from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai under Serafin Piñol-Roma. Her 2003 dissertation was titled, Ribonucleoprotein Complexes In Gene Expression : Remodeling Events And Common Components In Nuclear And Mitochondrial Mrna Maturation. As a postdoctoral researcher she joined Joan A. Steitz's laboratory at Yale University and subsequently Ian Macara's laboratory at the University of Virginia.
Mili joined the laboratory of cellular and molecular biology as a NIH Stadtman Investigator at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in September 2012. She discovered a localization pathway that targets RNAs at cellular protrusions. The goal of Mili's laboratory is to understand the regulation, functional consequences, and disease associations of localized RNAs.
