Lone Peijs

Lone Peijs is a Research Fellow in the Deshmukh Group at the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research (CBMR), Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen. Based at Blegdamsvej 3B in Copenhagen, Denmark, she conducts cutting-edge research on adipose tissue biology and metabolic regulation using advanced proteomic methodologies.

Her primary research focuses on adipocyte development and secretome dynamics, with significant contributions to understanding brown/white adipose tissue heterogeneity and novel signaling molecules like batokines. Key investigations include mitochondrial supercomplex plasticity, skeletal muscle secretome regulation, and adipose progenitor differentiation pathways. Her work bridges cellular mechanisms with metabolic health outcomes through rigorous proteomic mapping and functional validation.

Publication trends reveal a strategic progression from adolescent metabolic studies (2017) toward sophisticated adipose tissue characterization (2019-2023), increasingly utilizing mass spectrometry and multi-omics approaches. Current work emphasizes human adipose depot biology and inter-tissue communication, with high-impact outputs in journals like Nature Metabolism and Cell Metabolism.

The Deshmukh Group at CBMR provides an interdisciplinary environment for metabolic research, with Dr. Peijs contributing to collaborative projects on adipose tissue development and metabolic disease mechanisms. Her work demonstrates strong international visibility through media coverage and extensive academic sharing on platforms like Mendeley and X.
