She and her husband had just done a tour of the Dolomites together and were about to end their holiday when tragedy struck, according to Il Giorno.
The woman was a lead health data scientist at 10 Downing Street and offered crucial advice to the government in its handling of the pandemic.
She suffered fatal injuries after being thrown from her bike as she descended a steep downhill trail.
She was wearing a helmet but the fall was “very violent”, meaning she died instantly.
The woman’s husband has been hospitalised for shock following the event.
