De Sanctis Juan Bautista Ph.D.

I was initially trained in Biochemistry (Temple University), and then I did doctoral studies in physiological sciences, specializing in Biochemistry, Metabolism, and Immunology. I was a professor for more than 30 years at the Faculty of Medicine and the Institute of Immunology of the Faculty of Medicine of the Universidad Central de Venezuela. My big area of expertise is inflammation, with ample background in immune response, cell metabolism, lipidomics, signal transduction, and pharmacology. Currently, I am involved in a project on Cancer and immune response and others on COVID and long COVID (Horizon project PREDISPOSE, starting in 2027).
