Sandra Pellegrini is Director of Research INSERM and Head of the Unit of Cytokine Signaling at the Institut Pasteur in Paris. After graduating with a Laurea in Biological Sciences at the University La Sapienza in Rome (Italy), she obtained a Ph.D in Basic Medical Sciences from New York University, New York (USA) in 1986. Following a post-doctoral training at the Imperial Cancer Research Fund, London (UK), she joined the Institut Pasteur. Since 2002, she heads a research unit in the Department of Immunology investigating molecular mechanisms underlying the pleiotropic action of type I interferons.
