About

The Innate Immunity Unit comprises 16 members (4 permanent scientists, 4 engineers/technicians, 5 postdoctoral fellows, 3 PhD students) with complementary interests and expertise in immunology, developmental biology, virology and animal models.

Together with the Lymphopoiesis Unit (Ana Cumano) and Dynamics of Immune Response Unit (Philippe Bousso), we form the Inserm Unit 668 (Pathophysiology of the Immune System) that pursues collaborative projects involving lymphocyte development, differentiation and functional dynamics.
