OverviewAI-generated summary
Marli S.P. Azevedo's research centers on the study of viral infections and immune responses in animal models, with a particular focus on rotavirus and norovirus. Azevedo has investigated the pathogenesis and immune responses in gnotobiotic calves and pigs following infection with specific strains of human norovirus. Her work has also explored cytokine and antibody responses in gnotobiotic pigs after infection with both virulent and attenuated human rotavirus strains, as well as the viremia and shedding patterns of rotavirus in these models.
Further research has examined the role of maternal cytokines in neonatal immunity, investigating their transfer to suckling piglets through in vivo and in vitro models. Azevedo has also studied the impact of dietary factors, such as vitamin A content, on antibody responses to inactivated bovine coronavirus vaccines in feedlot calves. Additionally, her research has assessed the stability of bovine coronavirus on lettuce surfaces under refrigeration conditions. Azevedo is recognized as a high-impact researcher, with a notable h-index of 29 and over 2,300 citations across her 72 publications. She leads a research group and collaborates with several colleagues at the National Center for Toxicological Research.
