The Danish Mole Project - Genetics in trophoblastic disease
A hydatidiform mole (HM) is an abnormal conceptus, with a surplus of paternally interited genes. A HM cause a significant risk of trophoblastic neoplasia.
We have shown that the risk of cancer is low after triploid HMs - and the international guidelines were changed.
Now we test if
- zygosity and the proteome can predict the prognosis
- the women can have personalized follow-up by using the genetic profile of the HM
Profile
As an external associate professor, I conduct research in genertics in relation to early differentiation and cancer. In am the head of the Danish Mole project.
I am also interested in medical education from the students start at the university to doctors specialized in clinical genetics struggle with “continuous education”.
I am a MD, PhD and specialist in clinical genetics.
