Dedicated to basic and translational research in the field of Liver Physiopathology. Interested in overfeeding and/or sedentary lifestyle-associated obesity that promotes Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Diseases (NAFLD). Nowadays, it is already demonstrated that Hepatocarcinoma (HCC) escalating morbidity and mortality trends parallel to the rising prevalence of NAFLD. In that context, my team is committed to understanding mechanistically how polyploidy, DNA damage response and immunosurveillance impact on hepatocytes cell division and transformation leading to HCC emergence and progression.
