Professor Pietro Mastroeni
Pathogenesis, immunobiology, prevention and treatment of bacterial infections
My current research develops and applies multidisciplinary approaches to unravel the links between in vivo pathogen behaviour (location, division, death, gene regulation and spread), immunity, immunoevasion and the efficacy of vaccines and antibiotics. We are currently extending our research to development of new vaccines against bacterial septicaemic diseases.
