Dr Katrine Lindholm BOGH

Dr. Katrine Lindholm Bøgh is a full Professor and heads the Research Group for Food Allergy at the National Food Institute at the Technical University of Denmark, Denmark. She holds a PhD degree in food allergy and has +20 years of experience working within the interface between biochemistry and food allergy. Her research focuses on the development of new and improved strategies for prediction, prevention, management and treatment of food allergies with the use of preclinical models. Research is focused on determining which properties of food proteins contribute to allergy development, and which properties contribute to tolerance development, as well as the underlying immune mechanisms. A large part of her group’s work focuses on assessing the allergenicity of novel food as well as developing new and improved methods for such assessment.
