JIMENA TOSELLO

I am a clinical biochemist and PhD specialized in immunology. I did my undergraduate, and PhD at the National University of Córdoba-Argentina and joined the Institut Curie in 2017 to study tumor immunology with a translational goal. I am developing my post-doctoral project in Eliane Piaggio's group, alongside our bioinformaticians Wilfrid Richer and Yoann Missolo. Our project aims to discover the characteristics of tumor-specific Tregs and to prove the role of lymph nodes in cancer immunity using single cell OMICS. In trying to bring our science to the clinic, I also participated in a target discovery platform unveiling new Tregs therapeutic targets (now followed by Egle Therapeutics, a spin-out from Institut Curie). In addition, I had the chance to collaborate on several projects within the Institute or with great external scientists. In my career, I have learned a lot so far but I still have so much to learn! I hope to remain curious, persevering, humble, collaborative and grateful enough to continue this adventure.
