Rossana Azzoni is a Research Fellow at the Department of Immunology, Monash University, affiliated with Alfred Hospital. She specializes in neuroimmune interactions in the lung, focusing on their role in disease mechanisms. Her work bridges immunology, neurobiology, and respiratory medicine, with contributions to understanding host-microbe interactions.
Education: BSc in Pharmacology (UK undergraduate studies) and PhD in Immunology (UK), followed by postdoctoral research in Australia since 2021 under Professors Benjamin Marsland and Nicola Harris.
Research interests include mucosal immunology, lung fibrosis, and the nervous system's role in immune regulation. She explores how neuroimmune circuits influence respiratory disease progression, particularly in contexts like helminth infections and microbiome dysbiosis.
Her recent publications highlight themes in neuroimmune signaling, microbiome effects on immunity, and gastrointestinal-lung-brain axis interactions. Collaborations span international teams studying parasitology, inflammatory pathways, and translational immunology.
No scientific awards explicitly listed. Her advisory and grant activities are not detailed here, but her work is supported by peer-reviewed outputs in high-impact journals such as Immunity and Annual Review of Immunology.
