New professor is an expert in bone diseases and their treatment
Thomas Levin Geiser Andersen has recently been appointed to a shared professorship between Aarhus University, the University of Southern Denmark and Odense University Hospital. His research focuses on the processes that affect human bones and bone renewal throughout a person’s life.
An adult human has a total of 206 bones, and throughout a lifetime, those bones can be affected by ageing, osteoporosis, or bone marrow cancer. Thomas Levin Geiser Andersen has spent many years optimising the treatment of bone diseases and developing new methods of diagnosing and monitoring patients nationally and internationally.
Health's new professor has led national and international research projects, which aims to optimise the treatment of patients with osteoporosis and myelomatosis. He also served as the president of the International Society of Bone Morphometry from 2020 to 2022 and chair of the yearly Danish Bone Research Workshop.
"My professorship is a huge honour and a major pat on the back for me, my group, and our research. It recognizes my leading role within national and international bone research, which will support my continued influence on bone research," he says.
