Research

  • I am a respiratory physician-scientist, combining active clinical duties with clinical and translational research on airway diseases, particularly severe asthma and bronchiectasis.

    My research aims to link the clinical symptoms and signs of severe asthma and bronchiectasis with the underlying inflammatory and immunological mechanisms. Our goal is to contribute to a better understanding of these diseases, ultimately improving the well-being of our patients.

    Currently, our focus is on the role of T-regulatory cells in the immunoregulation of inflammation in airway diseases.
