The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Immunology, Mast cell, Eosinophil, Molecular biology and Fibroblast. Her study in Inflammation, Allergic inflammation, Allergy, Cytokine and Immune system is carried out as part of her Immunology studies. Her Mast cell research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biochemistry, Interleukin 33, Prostaglandin D2, Cell biology and Histamine.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Death Receptors, Apoptosis induction and Caspase activation in addition to Cell biology. Her work carried out in the field of Eosinophil brings together such families of science as Eosinophilia, Kinase and Granulocyte. Her study in Fibroblast is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Fibrosis, Matrix metalloproteinase and Tryptase.
Her primary areas of investigation include Immunology, Mast cell, Eosinophil, Cell biology and Fibroblast. Her work in Allergic inflammation, Allergy, Inflammation, Immunoglobulin E and Immune system is related to Immunology. Her studies deal with areas such as Pathology, Interleukin 33, Molecular biology, Degranulation and Histamine as well as Mast cell.
Her research integrates issues of Eosinophilia and Cytokine in her study of Eosinophil. Her Cell biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Receptor and Apoptosis. Her Fibroblast research focuses on Fibrosis and how it connects with Nerve growth factor.
Her primary scientific interests are in Immunology, Immune system, Inflammation, Allergy and Allergic inflammation. Her research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Microbiome and Immunology. Her work deals with themes such as Receptor, Innate immune system, Cell type and Cytokine, which intersect with Inflammation.
Her Allergic inflammation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cell surface receptor, In vitro, Tryptase and Peritonitis. Her Eosinophil research includes elements of Mast cell, Ex vivo and Evolutionary biology. Her Mast cell research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Mitochondrion, Inhibitory effect, Dexamethasone and Histamine.
Francesca Levi-Schaffer mainly focuses on Immunology, Inflammation, Immune system, Drug discovery and Drug. The Immunology study combines topics in areas such as Microbiome and Cancer. Her Inflammation research includes themes of Immunoglobulin E, Peritoneal cavity, Tryptase and Peritonitis.
Francesca Levi-Schaffer combines subjects such as Thymic stromal lymphopoietin, Cytokine, Eosinophilia, Tolerability and Receptor complex with her study of Immunoglobulin E. Her Immune system research incorporates themes from Haematopoiesis, CD48, Binding properties and Function. Her Drug discovery study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Therapeutic strategy, Risk analysis and Human proteins.
