The Team

We are an international and interdisciplinary team with a common goal: to fight cancer by restoring the ecological balance of tissues. We study how aging and therapy reshape tissue environments — creating metabolic scarcities that shift the fitness landscape to favor precancerous and suppress immune cells. By uniting expertise in immunology, metabolism, aging, and oncology, we aim to reprogram these metabolic bottlenecks for better prevention, prediction, and treatment.
