Maria Josefine Reimann

Maria Josefine Reimann is a DVM and postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen. She serves as a Lifepharm Guest Researcher in Preclinical Disease Biology and is part of The Graduate Programme for In Vivo Pharmacology and Experimental Animals. Her professional address is Ridebanevej 9, 1870 Frederiksberg C, Denmark, with contact information including phone numbers +4535333179 and +4522461456, and email mreimann@sund.ku.dk.

Dr. Reimann's research program centers on valvular heart disease in dogs, with specialized focus on myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. She investigates the identification and physiological significance of genetic polymorphisms and their impact on response to medical treatment in canine cardiac conditions. Her work bridges veterinary clinical practice with molecular and pharmacological research, contributing to the understanding of disease mechanisms that have potential translational relevance to human cardiology.

Analysis of her recent publications (2021-2024) reveals consistent research themes focusing on genetic factors in canine heart disease, platelet function in cardiac pharmacology, and metabolic aspects of heart failure. Her work demonstrates sophisticated integration of molecular biology techniques, clinical veterinary medicine, and pharmacological approaches to address complex questions in comparative cardiology, with particular attention to breed-specific manifestations of disease.

Dr. Reimann has participated in numerous professional development activities including the European College of Veterinary Internal Medicine, American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine, SHARE symposium, and the FELASA C - Laboratory Animal Science Course where she served as a speaker. Her professional engagement also includes specialized workshops in statistics for veterinarians and the International Symposium on Regulatory Peptides, demonstrating breadth in her scientific interests.
