We propose the following programme option:
- 2-week Program: This program offers a brief yet insightful experience into our research areas. It's suited for those seeking an introduction to our research methodologies and lab environment, bridging the gap between initial exploration and in-depth research training.
- Intensive Research Training (6-12 Weeks): For a comprehensive and immersive experience in research techniques, the 6–12-week programs are recommended. These programs provide extensive hands-on training, allowing for deep involvement in our research areas and experimental techniques.
The projects are oriented on the development of pseudotyped virus particles (PVP) to be used for genome editing and for studying virus-host interaction (neutralizing activity). We will also test the capacity of PVP with different post-translational modification patterns to infect different ell types, including 2D and 3D cultures.
Areas of interest
My research interest focuses on the co-pathogen and host-pathogen molecular interactions, anti-viral immune response and setting up of in-vitro systems to study pathogenesis of different viruses.
Research areas:
1- study of the PTM modifications in the contest of respiratory viruses (funded by EU-PRIN2022)
2- anti-SARS-CoV-2 immune response in HIV-infected individuals (funded by Roche Diagnostics)
3- anti-HBV immunity (funded by Roche pRED)
