My research project is dedicated to the investigation of the effects of genetic variants associated with eczema herpeticum on increased herpes simplex virus 1 susceptibility in primary immune cells. As a dermatologist, I am deeply interested in understanding the pathophysiology of immune-mediated skin diseases, especially AD and its complications. During my previous clinical practice and research, I have realized the complexity and burden of eczema herpeticum and herpes simplex virus in AD patients. It became clear that I would like to specialize deeply in this scientific field.
ISAD fellowship gives me the perfect chance to investigate the mechanisms of herpes simplex virus susceptibility in immune cells while working in state-of-art laboratories at Hannover Medical School (MHH). I believe that experience gained during this fellowship will strongly enrich my future research and clinical practice, and help me to master innovative laboratory techniques.
Moreover, I consider this program as a great opportunity to get in touch with German language and cultureI am so happy and grateful to ISAD for giving me such a fantastic opportunity and excited to start my research project in MHH! Thank you for your support!
