Specializations
Pediatric Hematology & Oncology
The investigator’s work concentrates on malignant blood disorders and solid tumors affecting children and adolescents, including Acute lymphoblastic leukemia, Acute myeloid leukemia, and Diffuse large B‑Cell lymphoma. Research aims to improve survival and reduce treatment‑related toxicity in the pediatric population.
- Acute lymphoblastic leukemia
- Acute myeloid leukemia
- Diffuse large B‑Cell lymphoma
- Relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma
- Advanced neuroblastoma
Affiliated with the Medical University of Vienna, the focus is on pediatric oncology protocols and novel therapeutic strategies.
Autoimmune & Inflammatory Pediatric Disorders
A central theme is the investigation of immune‑mediated diseases in youth, such as Systemic lupus erythematosus, Juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and Dermatomyositis. The goal is to delineate disease mechanisms and advance targeted immunotherapies.
- Systemic lupus erythematosus
- Juvenile idiopathic arthritis
- Dermatomyositis
- Systemic sclerosis
- Autoimmune cytopenias
Research is conducted within the Universitätsklinik für Kinder‑ und Jugendheilkunde, emphasizing pediatric immunology.
Rare Genetic & Metabolic Disorders
The investigator addresses inherited metabolic conditions and rare genetic diseases, including Hereditary angioedema, Fabry disease, and Alport syndrome. Efforts focus on disease‑specific therapies and long‑term outcome monitoring.
- Hereditary angioedema
- Fabry disease
- Alport syndrome
- Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia
- Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia
These studies leverage the university’s expertise in pediatric genetics and metabolic medicine.
Pediatric Cardiology & Vascular Medicine
Cardiovascular health in children is a key interest, with research on conditions like Congenital heart disease, Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The aim is to improve early detection and therapeutic options.
- Congenital heart disease
- Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
- Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease
- Heart failure in pediatric patients
- Elevated lipoprotein(a) in youth
Collaboration with the university’s cardiovascular unit supports translational pediatric cardiology research.
Pediatric Infectious Diseases & Immunodeficiency
Investigation of severe infections and immune deficiencies in children includes Invasive aspergillosis, Chronic graft‑versus‑host disease, and primary immunodeficiency disorders. The work seeks to refine antimicrobial strategies and immune reconstitution therapies.
- Invasive aspergillosis
- Chronic graft‑versus‑host disease
- Primary immunodeficiency
- Severe viral infections in transplant recipients
- Antibody‑mediated rejection
These projects are integrated within the pediatric transplant and infectious disease programs at the Medical University of Vienna.
