Thomas Østerbye serves as a Special Consultant and Guest Researcher in the Department of Immunology and Microbiology at the University of Copenhagen's Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences. His research focuses on immunological mechanisms with particular emphasis on epitope mapping, HLA interactions, and autoimmune disease processes.
Dr. Østerbye's research interests span immunology with specialized expertise in T cell and antibody epitope mapping, HLA class I and II interactions, and autoimmune disease mechanisms. His work integrates experimental immunology with computational approaches to understand molecular recognition in immune responses. He has developed and applied peptide microarray technologies to study immune responses in conditions such as celiac disease, type 1 diabetes, and infectious disease vaccination.
His recent publications demonstrate a consistent research trajectory examining immune responses across multiple disease contexts and technological platforms. The articles reveal a strong focus on developing and applying high-throughput methods for characterizing immune recognition, with applications spanning vaccine development, autoimmune disease mechanisms, and diagnostic approaches.
Dr. Østerbye maintains an active research profile with numerous collaborations, particularly with Professor Søren Buus and other immunology researchers across institutions. His work appears in high-impact immunology journals including Frontiers in Immunology, Cell Reports, Journal of Immunology, and Science Immunology.
His laboratory work centers on peptide microarray technology and its applications for studying immune responses at molecular resolution. This technical focus enables detailed characterization of antibody and T cell specificities across various disease contexts and vaccine responses.
