Research summary
AI-generated

Mario Alles studies how immune cells, particularly natural killer (NK) cells, function in the context of HIV infection, vaccination, and related health complications such as cardiovascular disease. Recent work examines how NK cells contribute to inflammation and disease risk in people on HIV therapy and explores new vaccine strategies (including BCG-based and oral adjuvant approaches) that harness NK cell memory-like responses. Some earlier work also touched on infant nutrition and case reports of bacterial infections.

Publication output was minimal or absent through the mid-2010s but has grown markedly since 2023, with a notable surge in 2024, suggesting an increasingly active and productive recent period.
