Biography

Francesco Colucci is a researcher focused on the interactions between immune cells and the uterus, specifically looking at how maternal immune cells contribute to fetal development and health outcomes. His research examines the role of natural killer (NK) cells in pregnancy, investigating how these cells interact with the immune system and genetic variants to influence placental function and fetal growth. Colucci is particularly interested in understanding the mechanisms behind NK cell 'education' and its consequences on uterine vascular changes and pregnancy outcomes. By unraveling the complex immunological interactions that occur in the womb, he aims to improve health interventions and outcomes for mothers and their children.
