Jane Skjøth

Jane Skjøth serves as Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Clinical Medicine at the University of Copenhagen's Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, specializing in Neurosurgery. Her clinical and research activities are centered at Copenhagen University Hospital (Region Hovedstaden) where she maintains an active neurosurgical practice focusing on brain tumor management.

Her research program spans multiple critical areas in neuro-oncology, with emphasis on glioblastoma immunotherapy, intraoperative imaging techniques, and blood-brain barrier dynamics. Current projects include developing novel optical imaging agents for fluorescence-guided glioma resection and investigating immune checkpoint inhibitor mechanisms in recurrent glioblastoma. Her work integrates translational approaches from proteomic analysis of cerebrospinal fluid to first-in-human surgical imaging trials.

Analysis of her recent publication portfolio reveals strong focus on translational neurosurgical oncology, particularly in three interconnected domains: (1) Advanced intraoperative visualization techniques for tumor resection, (2) Immunological mechanisms and therapeutic responses in glioblastoma, and (3) Metabolic and physiological monitoring during brain tumor surgery. Her collaborative network spans neurosurgery, oncology, and molecular imaging disciplines across Danish and international institutions.

While specific mentoring activities aren't detailed in available sources, her leadership in first-in-human surgical imaging trials and multi-institutional glioblastoma cohort studies indicates active supervision of clinical researchers. Her work has attracted significant scientific attention with multiple publications picked up by news outlets and substantial academic readership.
