I am the head of the Mucosal Immunology Lab at the Institute of Biomedicine and Molecular Genetics from Valladolid (IBGM, Universidad de Valladolid-CSIC) in Spain. My lab is devoted to the study of the human intestinal immune system in health, and how changes in its properties are related with the development of autoimmune diseases like coeliac disease and inflammatory bowel disease. To that end, we base most of our work in the study of human blood and intestinal primary samples from both controls and patients affected from those pathologies, which are next analyzed using top-of-the-art spectral and computational cytometry approaches, Our aim, therefore, is to unveil the immune mechanisms governing the development of such autoimmune diseases to discover novel biomarkers to aid on their diagnose and monitoring, at the time that we identify novel mechanisms to perform a targeted immunotherapy.
