Expertise They are leaders in the study of HMGB proteins, nuclear proteins that are released from dead cells accidentally, and promote inflammatory, immune responses, and regeneration of damaged tissue. For their activities they are called "alarm" or Damage-Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMPs). Recently, I have demonstrated with other colleagues that HMGB1 is involved in epilepsy and in the development of inflammation-related tumors. For this reason, my skills are centered on molecular and cellular biology, but extend to immunology and tumor biology and tissue regeneration
