Sussan Nourshargh is a highly respected researcher in the field of immunology, inflammation, and vascular biology.

She received her PhD in Immunology from the University of London, completed her postdoctoral training at the University of Geneva in Switzerland and later joined the William Harvey Research Institute at Queen Mary University of London, where she currently holds the position of Professor of Microvascular Pharmacology. Nourshargh's research is focused on unraveling the cellular and molecular basis of fundamental aspects of immunity and inflammation, particularly related to the mechanisms by which white blood cells breach blood vessel walls to enter inflamed tissues. Her principal research objectives include investigating the interplay between vascular, tissue, and immune cells that regulate vascular integrity and function, exploring the fundamental concepts under physiological and pathological conditions, and investigating the effects of ageing.

 Through her groundbreaking work, Sussan Nourshargh is expanding our understanding of the immune system and paving the way for new treatments and therapies for a variety of diseases and conditions.
