I am a researcher in the Immunology field, specifically innate immunity and cytokines. Also, an Associate Editor for scientific journals. My research has led to significant achievements, such as identifying the role of PD-1 in [READ MORE]
Favorite cytokine? That’s easy: IL-6! A couple years ago, I organized an ICIS sponsored Interleukin-6 Meeting in Kiel together with Prof. Tadamitsu Kishimoto. This meeting brought together most of the scientists interested in this important cytokine. This is just one example of the opportunities to develop important friendships and collaborations [READ MORE]
My lab focuses on the development of novel immunotherapies for pediatric solid tumors. We take the most promising discoveries and translate them into the clinic. [READ MORE]
My main research interest is to decipher how signals such those of the microbiota and metabolism regulate inflammatory diseases and infections of the respiratory tract. I am about to launch my independent scientific career and I am very grateful for the support of the ICIS through the Sydney and Joan [READ MORE]

My research interests include understanding the opposing challenges faced by the immune system in response to micro- vs. macro- parasites and is studying the relationship between type 2 cytokines and IL-17 … particularly the evolutionary relationship between type 2 immunity, parasite control and tissue repair and is currently investigating how [READ MORE]
My research focuses on the immune responses to emerging viral infections and vaccines in humans, with emphasis on older adults. The best advice I received was by the incredibly talented mentors I had and, in brief, it is to stay curious, celebrate wins no matter if they are big or [READ MORE]
My research focuses on immune metabolism and cancer microenvironment, and as a surgeon-scientist in training, I am deeply interested in improving the outcomes of liver cancer patients. Regarding my hobbies, I really like swimming. Lastly, the best advice I’ve received is that life is an experience. This simple yet profound [READ MORE]
My research focuses on understanding the cytokine and metabolic regulation of regulatory T cells residing in non-lymphoid tissues such as the visceral adipose tissue and skin. I started my lab at Emory University in 2020, right at the beginning of the COVID pandemic. It was difficult but I received a [READ MORE]
