Research

  • I am a respiratory physician-scientist combining active clinical duties with clinical and translational research on airway diseases, focusing on 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 those diseases, with the ultimate goal of improving the well-being of our patients.

     

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