Thomas Yssing Michaelsen, MSc in Biology, received this year’s Roblon Prize along with DKK 100,000 for his further development of a method for the examination and classification of cancer of the lymph nodes. Each year, the Roblon Prize is awarded to a master’s thesis which is considered particularly innovative. In his master’s thesis ‘A differentiation dependent classification of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas by the NanoString technology’, Thomas Yssing Michaelsen has further developed a method for categorising patients according to their prognosis and treatment needs. This increases the potential for finding the right treatment for individual patients..
