Katharina Rohlf

Katharina Rohlf serves as a Researcher in the Department of Toxicology at the Leibniz Research Centre for Working Environment and Human Factors (IfADo) in Dortmund, Germany, where she is a core member of the Cell Metabolism research team investigating toxin-induced metabolic disruptions.

Her research focuses on cellular metabolic pathways within toxicological contexts, emphasizing how environmental toxins alter metabolic functions and contribute to disorders like diabetes and obesity. This work bridges molecular toxicology and metabolic disease mechanisms to inform occupational health interventions.

Dr. Rohlf operates within IfADo's Toxicology division under department head Prof. Dr. Jan G. Hengstler, contributing to the institute's mission of analyzing workplace-environment interactions with human physiology through advanced metabolic profiling techniques.
