Apresentação Pessoal

My line of research focuses in understanding the immune response occurring in the adipose tissue in infected animals and its contribution for host resistance/susceptibility to disease. Previous projects as Principal Investigator:

“Study of the immune function of adipose tissue in Neospora caninum infected hosts”, Ref. PTDC/CTV-WEL/3079/2014 (POCI-01-0145-FEDER-016732)
(2016- 2020)

"Role of the adipose tissue in the host immune response to N. caninum infection". Ref. PTDC/CVT/122777/2010 (FCOMP-01-0124-FEDER-020158) (2012-2014).
