Professor Claudia Monaco

University of Oxford, Oxford (United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland)

Member of:

Claudia trained as a Cardiologist (1998) and PhD (2001) with Professor Attilio Maseri at the Catholic University of Rome, Italy, before moving to the Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, Imperial College London to work with Professor Marc Feldmann. She moved to the University of Oxford in 2011, where she became Professor of Cardiovascular Inflammation in 2012. Her group was the first to establish innovative experimental methodology for the isolation, culture and targeting of live cells from human atheroma lesions. Our work allowed the elegant characterization of the inflammatory and synthetic properties of human atherosclerosis, establishing toll-like receptors as important activators of innate immunity in atherosclerosis. The Cardiovascular Inflammation Team is now focused on interpreting the functional diversity of immune cells in atherosclerosis with single cell biology techniques and devise strategies for their selective targeting.
