About

Researcher at the Bordeaux University ImmunoConcept Unit. His research focuses on (1) HIV pathogenesis and (2) the definition of T-cell correlates of efficacy against HIV. He is interested in characterizing and understanding how elevated immune activation and inflammation lead to accelerated immunosenescence in HIV infected patients, defining which specific T-cell attributes (e.g. function, avidity, T cell receptor) are associated with a better control of viral replication in infected donors, and develop approaches to induce such attributes.

Title: Use of the STING ligand cGAMP in the development of an adjuvanted mRNA based vaccine approach against HIV

The main objective of this project is to test the adjuvanticity of the type I IFN inducing STING agonist cGAMP to enhance the induction of potent immunity against HIV using a mRNA LNP based vaccine plateform. mRNA vaccines have been recognized as an effective vaccine strategy. Increasing preclinical and clinical results have demonstrated that mRNA… Continue reading Use of the STING ligand cGAMP in the development of an adjuvanted mRNA based vaccine approach against HIV
