I am an Assistant Professor in Hematology and Bone Histology. My research leverages advanced molecular histology and spatial transcriptomics to study pathophysiological bone marrow microenvironment alterations in aging and tumorigenesis. My main research focus are multiple myeloma, senescence in aging and cancer progression. I am also interested in the bone-brain axis, including the evaluation of bone pain in malignant and rare conditions.
I teach at the PhD Course in Bone Biology and supervise students conducting research projects as part of their bachelor´s thesis, master´s thesis or individual study units, as well as international research students through Erasmus+ initiatives. Through a hands-on approach to experimental protocols and data analyses, our goal is to form the next generation of scientists to advance our understanding of bone biology.
We collaborate with academic and industrial research teams nationally and internationally on the establishment, optimization, and analysis of histological workflows across a wide range of human and animal tissues.
As a senior scientific advisor for the Danish Spatial Imaging Consortium (DanSIC, www.dansic.dk), I provide expertise in multiplex immunofluorescence, in situ hybridization, and spatial transcriptomics. I support research initiatives by optimizing imaging workflows and advising on experimental design. My work helps advance precision medicine and translational research, fostering collaborations that enhance our understanding of tissue microenvironments in health and disease.
In addition, I contribute to forensic anthropology in collaboration with the police, applying expertise in human skeletal biology, bone histology, and tissue analysis to forensic investigations.
