Research interest
Immunotherapies open new frontiers of cancer treatment. My research focuses on the understanding of the immune response of different kinds of tumors and the basis of their resistance to therapy. Doing this, my aim is to establish direct and indirect cell labeling strategies in vitro which can be used, in vivo, to monitor tumor immune responses and to detect which immune cells are involved in tumor response, by using Positron-Emission-Tomography/Magnetic Resonance (PET/MR) imaging technique in different tumor mouse models.
