MARIANNE BURBAGE

I was trained as an immunologist, and I am particularly interested in understanding interactions between immune cells. I obtained my PhD degree in London, studying the role of actin cytoskeleton during B cell activation. I joined the Institut Curie in 2016, first as a post-doctoral fellow and then as a Inserm research scientist. Since 2025, I am directing a junior research group. The aim of group is to understand how the immune system considers the so-called "silent" genome. I am analysing this by focusing on processes of immune tolerance as well as during anti-tumour immune responses.
