Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Cancer
  • Internal medicine

Marina Cavazzana-Calvo mostly deals with Immunology, Severe combined immunodeficiency, Transplantation, Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and Genetic enhancement. Her Immunology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Haematopoiesis and Disease. Marina Cavazzana-Calvo has included themes like Insertional mutagenesis, Cancer research, Internal medicine, Lymphocyte and DNA repair in her Severe combined immunodeficiency study.

She interconnects Survival analysis, Stem cell, Retrospective cohort study and Immunopathology in the investigation of issues within Transplantation.
