Enthusiastic research scientist fascinated by host-microbe interactions, with an extensive experience in Virology and Systems Biology.
I did my PhD studying Influenza A viruses x cell host interactions with a focus on DExD RNA helicases and nuclear export of viral mRNAs. I then transitioned to Systems Biology and worked on microbe x host x drug interactions using the model organism C. elegans.
I returned to the virology field with the intent of implementing a Systems Virology line of research on the Respiratory Syncytial Virus.
