Head of the Central Flowcytometry Unit / Scientific researcher

The principal objective of my research is to investigate the phenotype and function of pathogenic B-cells and T-cells in patients with autoimmune diseases, in particular ANCA-associated vasculitis and Giant Cell Arteritis. My research is aimed at gaining a better understanding of the disease mechanisms to identify disease-specific-biomarkers and targets for therapeutic intervention.
