Overview

Lorenzo Galluzzi is affiliated with Cornell University in the United States. Their research interests focus primarily on medicine, biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, immunology, and microbiology. Within these broader fields, their subfields of study include immunology, oncology, molecular biology, pulmonary and respiratory medicine, and cancer research.

Their work extensively covers topics such as cancer immunotherapy and biomarkers, immunotherapy and immune responses, immune cell function and interaction, interferon and immune responses, CAR-T cell therapy research, autophagy in disease and therapy, and epigenetics and DNA methylation.

Frequent collaborators in their research include Guido Kroemer, Giulia Petroni, Aitziber Buqué, Takahiro Yamazaki, and Silvia C. Formenti. These partnerships have contributed to a significant body of work published across various scientific journals.

Galluzzi has published numerous papers in several prominent venues, including OncoImmunology, Methods in Cell Biology, Trends in Cancer, International Review of Cell and Molecular Biology, and Regular and Young Investigator Award Abstracts.

Some notable recent papers include:

  • "Autophagy in major human diseases," 2021, The EMBO Journal
  • "Immunostimulation with chemotherapy in the era of immune checkpoint inhibitors," 2020, Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology
  • "Immunogenic cell stress and death," 2022, Nature Immunology
  • "Consensus guidelines for the definition, detection and interpretation of immunogenic cell death," 2020, Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer
  • "Detection of immunogenic cell death and its relevance for cancer therapy," 2020, Cell Death and Disease

Galluzzi has also authored a book titled Tumor immunology and immunotherapy: integrated methods, published by Elsevier BV in 2020.
