Thomas Hankemeier

Thomas Hankemeier is a Full Professor in Epidemiology at Erasmus MC, Erasmus University Rotterdam. His research employs metabolomics and proteomics to study Alzheimer's disease, cardiovascular health, and systemic inflammation. Key investigations focus on identifying plasma biomarkers for thromboembolic risk, cognitive health in aging populations, and abdominal aortic aneurysm progression.

His work integrates multi-omics approaches to unravel interactions between metabolites, gut microbiomes, and environmental exposures in disease pathogenesis. Recent studies emphasize oxidative stress and inflammatory pathways in neurodegeneration, with applications in early diagnosis and precision medicine.
