Professor George Kassiotis

George Kassiotis is currently a Principal Group Leader and head of the laboratory of Retroviral Immunology at the Francis Crick Institute, London, UK. He is also a Professor of Retrovirology, at the Department of Infectious Disease, Imperial College London, UK, and recipient of an ERC Advanced Grant. His doctoral studies, with Lesley Probert and George Kollias at the Hellenic Pasteur Institute, Athens, Greece, focused on transgenic mouse models for human neuroimmunological diseases. He carried out postdoctoral studies with Brigitta Stockinger at the Medical Research Council’s National Institute for Medical Research in Mill Hill, London, UK, on T cell homeostasis and immunological memory. His laboratory’s current work concentrates on innate and adaptive immune responses to endogenous and exogenous retroviruses, as well as the broader evolutionary impact of endogenous retroelements on the development and function of host immunity.
