The Research Strategy
In accordance with our commitment as a University Department, the Department of Haematology at Aalborg Hospital has a research programme with focus on one or several aspects of the clinical courses of our patients as described in our “A regional translational research programme for malignant B cell disorders”.
Main Project Area
- Cancer stem cells in lymphoma and multiple myelomas
- Murine models of lymphomagenesis
- MicroRNAs in initiation and development of B cell lymphomas
- Impact of genetic lesions and mutations (SNP chip, GEP)
- Individualized chemosensitivity prediction
- Clinical trials
Ongoing PhD Programmes
- MicroRNA in DLBCL with nodal and extranodal manifestation
- Polymorfier i immunregulerende signalmolekyler – relation til overlevelse og sygdomsaktivitet ved B-celle sygdomme
- Studies of small discrete populations of B cells by microarray technology – in search of cancer stem associated genes in multiple myeloma
- The IGF system in multiple myeloma. Exploring diagnostic and therapeutic potentials
- Identification and characterization of new genes involved in lymphomagenesis and evaluation of their potential as biomarkers and therapeutic targets
- Stem cell related transcription factors in normal and malignant lymphopoiesis
- The role of miRNA and AID in B-cell malignancies
- The role of PAX5, BCL6, and PRDM1 isoforms in B cell differentiation and malignancies
- Statistical methods for repeated measures of xanax generic data and the systems biology of B-cell differentiation
- Heling af mucositis – Analyse af cellulære og humorale komponenter af betydning for mucositis patogenese og opheling, bedømt ud fra mucosabiopsier og perifert blod hos patienter i højdosis kemoterapi
- Statistical Models Studying Potential Biomarkers for Prediction of Chemotherapy Outcome
- Functional analysis of microRNAs determining chemosensitivity in B-cell malignancies by lentiviral transducion of human cancer B cell lines.
Ongoing Scholarships
- Retrospektiv vurdering af kvaliteten af behandlingsrespons ved akut myeloid leukæmi og betydning for prognosen – grant from The Danish Cancer Society
