Interest in...

Research interests in bivalves immunology/ immunotoxicology & nanotoxicology : immunotoxicity mechanisms of nanoparticles (metal, metal oxides), heavy metals & PAH. Major interest: assessing molecular and cellular biomarkers of the immune response related to nanotoxicity and its relationships with any potential uptake and/or signaling pathways. Interests in studying shellfish immunology (specifically bivalves immune system)
