ExpertiseMy role in the team is to develop methodological approaches to study the phenotype and function of immune cells in the context of inflammation or infection. I perform immunophenotyping of cells by flow cytometry and analyze their cytokine expression profiles. I have developed a 3D imaging protocol to visualize macrophages in the mammary gland.I have also set up a model of intramammary infection by Staphylococcus aureus and the monitoring of the progression of the of the infection by in vivo imaging.
