Doreen Reichert

Doreen Reichert is a researcher at the Leibniz Research Institute for Environmental Medicine (IUF) affiliated with Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, Germany. Her work focuses on the intersection of environmental toxicology, liver diseases, and immunology.

Her research interests span liver fibrosis mechanisms, gut microbiota responses to environmental pollutants, immune surveillance in skin models, and molecular signaling pathways in hepatic stellate cells. She has made significant contributions to understanding how environmental toxins like TCDD affect microbial glycosylation patterns with sex-specific differences, and how molecular pathways regulate liver fibrosis progression and recovery.

Her publication record shows a strong focus on environmental medicine with recent work (2021-2025) examining the molecular mechanisms of liver disease, skin immunology, and gut microbiome alterations. Her research combines advanced techniques including flow cytometry, 16S rRNA sequencing, and in vitro modeling to investigate host-environment interactions.

Dr. Reichert collaborates extensively with leading researchers at Heinrich Heine University, including Dieter Häussinger, Charlotte Esser, Claus Kordes, and Andrea Rossi, indicating her integration within a strong research network focused on environmental medicine and hepatology.
