The lab investigates three key areas: bacterial phagocytosis by cells, intracellular bacterial killing, and bacterial evasion strategies.
Media engagements include interviews on RTS (Swiss Radio and Television) such as a 2021 segment on animal experimentation in research and a 2017 discussion on his work. The group includes PhD students (Brigitte Pialot, Hiba Zein El Dine) and a postdoctoral fellow (Raphael Munoz Ruiz), supported by technician Anna Marchetti.
