Johanne Louise Modvig

Johanne Louise Modvig is a Researcher in the Department of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Copenhagen's Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences. She is actively engaged in research on molecular metabolism in cancer and aging, with additional work in exercise physiology and obesity research.

Research Interests

Dr. Modvig's research spans several interconnected areas at the intersection of molecular biology and physiology:

• Cancer Metabolism - Investigating how metabolic processes influence cancer development and progression
• Molecular Biology of Aging - Examining molecular mechanisms underlying the aging process
• Exercise Physiology - Studying physiological responses to physical activity across different populations
• Obesity Research - Exploring metabolic and physiological aspects of obesity and weight management
• Metabolic Health - Analyzing factors that influence overall metabolic function
• Fat Oxidation - Researching how the body utilizes fat as an energy source during exercise

Recent Publications

Dr. Modvig's recent work demonstrates a strong integration of basic science with clinical applications. Her publications from 2024-2025 reveal a research program focused on understanding physiological responses to environmental and lifestyle factors across different contexts:
