Anne With Mikkelsen

Anne With Mikkelsen is an active researcher at the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Southern Denmark, specializing in biomedical mass spectrometry and systems biology with a focus on autoantibodies and their clinical implications in neurological disorders and cancer.

Her primary research interests include:

• Autoantibodies and their diagnostic significance
• Autoimmune Encephalitis pathophysiology
• Paraneoplastic neurological syndromes
• Neuroimmunology mechanisms
• Cancer immunology interactions
• Immunosuppression treatment effects

Dr. Mikkelsen's recent work demonstrates a specialized focus on understanding how neuronal autoantibodies correlate with clinical outcomes, particularly in small-cell lung cancer patients. Her research bridges immunology, neurology, and oncology to explore the complex relationship between autoimmune responses and cancer progression without finding survival correlation in her recent study.

She maintains active collaborations across multiple clinical research units including Odense University Hospital's Research Units for Clinical Immunology and Rheumatology, as well as the Institute for Regional Health Research serving Næstved, Slagelse, and Ringsted Hospitals' Neurology department.
