Eliana Marina Coccia

EM. Coccia is interested in understanding how type I IFN contribute to the induction of the immune response against several pathogens, such as SARS-CoV-2, HIV, M. tuberculosis, A. fumigatus, Staphylococcus aureus and Epstein Barr virus. In particular the long-term objectives of her projects is to investigate IFN-driven immune-regulation and aberrant activation of IFN pathways in microbial infection and autoimmunity, with specific regard to B lymphocytes and primary dendritic cells.
