Hanne Vibeke Marquart

I am the leader of the research group for Diagnostic Immunology, as well as head of primary immunodeficiency (PID) and leukaemia diagnostics in children at Dept. of Clinical Immunology, Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen. My research focuses on immune cell development and immune (dys)function in relation to PID and malignant/non-malignant paediatric haematological disorders. To study this, we apply multi-colour flow cytometric immunophenotyping and in vivo immune functional analyses to primary patient samples. The experiences from both PID and leukaemia, gives our research team unique opportunities to combine studies of non-malignant and malignant haematological diseases in relation to immune function. My scientific publications reflect my focus on immune function, both within PID and haematological patients, i.e. in relation to complement deficiencies, to children with pneumococcal diseases, and checkpoint inhibitors.
