Research Contributions
Paraskevi Basdeki has contributed to the field of infectious diseases through her research on pneumococcal infections. Her work includes exploring host immune responses to pneumococcal proteins in the upper respiratory tract, which is essential for the development of serotype-independent pneumococcal vaccines. Additionally, she has investigated the potential of using distinct protein fragments instead of full-length proteins as antigens in novel protein-based pneumococcal vaccines. These contributions are crucial for advancing vaccine strategies and enhancing our understanding of pneumococcal disease prevention.
