Physiology of Circulation, Kidney and Lung

The overall aims of our research theme are to develop novel insights in physiology, new treatment strategies and non-invasive diagnostics. To pursue these aims, our research embraces multiple methods allowing us to perform clinical trials and work with humans and animals in vivo through to the investigating of individual cells.

Our theme utilizes the considerable skill sets of its members and our tradition for collaboration to ensure a diverse and innovative approach to our research.

Biering-Sørensen Group

Our aim is to test and merge new research methods that provide rapid responses to potential effect for the benefit of the patients. The vision for the research is to develop treatments which in the long term will make…

Christoffersen Group

The overall theme of our research is basic and clinical aspects of lipid and lipoproteins and how it can affect cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

Jacobsen Group

Research in the Vascular Modeling Laboratory is focused on integrative models of the microcirculation. We apply multiple-scale computational models to investigate basic mechanisms operating in the microcirculation in…

Jepps Group

The overarching theme of the group's research is to reveal and investigate new mechanisms that regulate arterial tone in order to improve our understanding of how vascular diseases develop, such as hypertension and…

Jespersen Group

In the Cardiac Physiology Laboratory, we aim at elucidating the physiological function of membrane embedded and associated proteins, through molecular, biochemical, pharmacological, and electrophysiological…

Kanters Group

The research group is concerned with signal analysis of electrocardiographic signals and inherited arrhythmias. We has specialized in the study of Long QT syndrome and has an outpatient clinic in cooperation with…

Linz Group

In the Cardiac Physiology Laboratory, we aim at elucidating the physiological function of membrane embedded and associated proteins, through molecular, biochemical, pharmacological, and electrophysiological…

Nielsen Group

The research focus of the Gap Junction Group is the regulation of cardiac conduction. We are particularly interested in the role of gap junctions and their use as anti-arrhytmic target.

Sosnovtseva Group

We combine innovative experimental techniques, new methods of data analysis and mechanism-based modeling to unravel complex relationships between structure, dynamics, and function of cellular and vascular networks in…

Sørensen Group

Our aim is to understand how the renal vasculature functions during normal conditions and during disease-states such as hypertension and diabetes. We investigate the mechanisms regulating the excretory function of the…

Thomsen Group

Cardiac electrophysiology is the science related to the investigation, diagnose, treatment, manipulation and challenge of the electrical activities of the heart. This is what we do. Our present aim is to understand how…
