I am writing my master thesis at the Serrano lab. The main project of my thesis is the development of a lung repair platform based on Mycoplasma pneumoniae. More specifically, we are trying to express therapeutic molecules like Interleucin 22 in Mycoplasma pneumoniae with the objective to treat Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections and promote lung recovery.

Background
