Research profile
During my master project I will study the influence of cell metabolism on the inflammatory/anti-inflammatory response by administering different drugs, targeting specific pathways in cell metabolism. The innate immune cells will be stimulated with both bacterial and viral signals and the cell responses will be measured both with flow cytometry as well as ELISA. Hopefully, I will gain a better understanding of cell metabolism within innate immune cells by performing experiments both in bulk and at single-cell level using droplet-based microfluidics.
