معرفی
Cecilia K Andersson is a Postdoctoral Researcher and Consultant specializing in Paediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes Research at Lund University, affiliated with the EXODIAB initiative (Excellence of Diabetes Research in Sweden). Her primary focus is on autoimmunity mechanisms in type 1 diabetes, particularly investigating islet cell antibodies, beta-cell function, and genetic factors influencing disease progression. She has contributed to studies on glucose tolerance in autoantibody-positive children and the role of tissue transglutaminase autoantibodies in diabetes pathogenesis.
Research Interests
- Autoantibody profiling in pediatric autoimmune diabetes
- Beta-cell dysfunction and glucose metabolism
- HLA genotype correlations in autoimmune disorders
- Clinical biomarkers for diabetes risk stratification
- Secondary prevention strategies in high-risk populations
Her work bridges basic immunology and clinical endocrinology, with recent studies exploring stress-induced gene expression in COPD patients. Collaborations include EXODIAB's multidisciplinary diabetes research network.
Labs/Teams
Active member of EXODIAB: Excellence of Diabetes Research in Sweden, collaborating with Lund University's Department of Pediatrics and clinical partners in pediatric endocrinology.
