Biography:

Giuseppe A. Sautto obtained his Bachelor’s degree in Medical Biotechnology at the University of Milan (Italy) from 2003-2006. He then received a Master’s Degree in Molecular and Cellular Medical Biotechnology in 2008, and a PhD in Molecular Medicine in 2012 at the Vitam Salute San Raffaele University of Milan. From 2007 Giuseppe focused his research activity on the selection, cloning, characterization and engineering of monoclonal antibodies directed against infectious agents (such as HCV, influenza and opportunistic fungi). He gave also lectures on Microbiology to undergraduate students. He joined as a visiting scientist the International Novartis Bio Camp in Basel (Switzerland) in 2012, the Institute de Biology Structural in Grenoble (France) in 2013 and the Institute of Virology of the Technical University of Munich (Germany) in 2014. He is author, editor and reviewer of several international scientific journals. In 2015 he was awarded by the Carlo Erba Foundation for his research activity on viral diseases.

Research Interests:

Cloning, engineering and characterization of monoclonal antibodies directed against infectious agents – Interplay between pathogen and host immune response – Immunoprophylactic and immunotherapeutic approaches against infectious diseases.
