Immunology - Transplants, Hepatology

The research in our lab is focused in translational research. In the past we focused mainly in studying HCV infection, viral host interaction with attempt todevelop inhibitors active against a broad range of HCV genetic variants. In the last few years we expand our interest to the field of solid organ transplantation and immunology of rejection. In both research fields, we apply cutting-edge technologies including viral infection, CRISPR cas9 gene editing, exosomes purification, as well as immunological, molecular, protein and cellular biology methods.
