Elea Denil

Elea Denil is a researcher at the University of Namur affiliated with the Research Institute for Life Sciences (URPHYM). Her work focuses on microbial interactions with human skin, particularly fungal pathogenesis and epidermal biology.

Research Interests: Elea's research explores strain-dependent invasion mechanisms of Malassezia furfur in human epidermis, contributing to understanding fungal infections and skin disease pathology. She investigates pathogen-host interactions and virulence factors through experimental dermatology studies.

Publications: Her recent work (2025) on Malassezia furfur strain variability in epidermal invasion represents the forefront of her research output, focusing on cellular microbiology and dermatological implications.
