معرفی
Thilo Schlott is a Professor of Human Biology and Statistics at the Faculty of Health Sciences, Hochschule Fulda, Germany. He holds a Dr. rer. nat. in Molecular Oncology and a Master of Science in Public Health, with extensive research and teaching experience in medical microbiology, tumor genetics, and vector-borne diseases. His academic journey began at Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, where he completed his doctorate and habilitation, later serving in molecular diagnostics and oncology research.
His research interests include:
- Molecular mechanisms in bladder and liver cancer
- Epigenetic regulation in tumorigenesis
- Public health aspects of tick-borne diseases like Borreliosis
- Historical medical reconstructions using patient correspondence from the 19th century, particularly related to Hahnemann and homeopathy
- Climate change adaptation and vector monitoring in occupational settings (forestry, agriculture)
The recent publications reflect a strong interdisciplinary trend, combining molecular oncology with public health and historical medicine. Early works focus on tumor suppressor genes (MDM2, p53, caveolin-1), methylation patterns, and viral interactions in cancer, while recent articles shift toward public health surveillance, risk perception in rural populations, and historical medical analysis. This evolution highlights a transition from pure laboratory-based oncology to applied public health and medical humanities.
Thilo Schlott has mentored numerous researchers, often co-publishing with colleagues and students in oncology and public health. While no formal grants are listed, his involvement in projects like "MüZe" (vector monitoring) and collaborations with pharmaceutical industry partners indicates active research funding. He has led molecular diagnostics units and contributed to tissue banking standards through HTCR Foundation.
He is actively involved in teaching modules on:
- Medical Microbiology and Hygiene
- Molecular Oncology
- Human Biology
- Evidence-Based Medicine (EbM)
- Statistics
Thilo Schlott has conducted international research in Canada (Vancouver, Edmonton) and South Africa (Cape Town), contributing to global scientific collaboration in pathology and genomics.
