"Having a strong mentor and support from your university is incredibly important to succeed in science, but maintaining your sanity with non-science based activities is equally important as graduate school can sometimes feel like its consumed your life."
Associate Professor
Dr. Roberta Attanasio has been working for years on vaccine development, antibody responses to vaccines, and the structure-function relationships at the basis of the interactions of antibodies with Fc receptors. Dr. Roberta Attanasio has been working for years on vaccine development, antibody responses to vaccines, and the structure-function relationships at the basis of the interactions of antibodies with Fc receptors. She is interested in understanding how genetic variants of antibodies and Fc receptors influence the immune response. More recently, she has developed an interest in understanding the effects of environmental pollutants on the immune system. Although Dr. Attanasio teaches mostly immunology classes, she is committed to sustainability and the introduction of sustainability across the curriculum. She now includes sustainability-based modules in her classes.
