Hospital in Paris. She was awarded the title of Medical Doctor in 2020 after writing a thesis entitled "Angiographic analysis of natural anastomoses between the anterior and posterior cerebral artery in Moyamoya disease and syndrome." Since this early work, her interest in vascular anatomy and embryology represents the main focus of her research and her scientific publications. Dr. Bonasia has always cultivated a keen interest in illustrative art, and from her earliest publications she demonstrated this passion by creating medical illustrations. Currently, she regularly contributes to scientific works by providing original illustrations with the aim of helping residents like herself to understand very complex concepts related to vascular anatomy. Since 2019, she has published approximately 15 scientific papers in the vascular field, of which she is first author on 10. The articles are mainly descriptive reviews related to cerebral arteries and their embryology, but also surgicalreports in the "How I do It" form as well as clinical studies. Since 2020 she is junior member of the Swiss Society of Neurosurgery, and of the Society of Swiss Young Neurosurgeons.
