The role of alveolar macrophages in Influenza A infection
Macrophages are innate immune cells that function as the first line defense against microorganisms. My project aims to generate transgenic models by which I can ablate macrophages in vivo in order to study their contribution in different experimental situations. In particular, I am harnessing Influe...
