Sophie Ugolini, winner of the Impulscience® program of the Bettencourt Schueller Foundation

The Impulscience® program aims to reward and support outstanding researchers in France. This program supports researchers to improve our knowledge of living organisms and ultimately human health.

Sophie Ugolini, researcher in Immunology, research director at Inserm and head of the "Neuronal regulation of immunity" team at the Marseille-Luminy Immunology Center (CIML), is a winner of the 2023 program for her work on the interactions between the nervous system and the immune system.
Her team is seeking to understand the mechanisms by which the nervous system and the immune system work together to repair tissue damage, particularly in the skin, and to defend against infections.
