Biography

Daniel Kotlarz is a Principal Investigator at the Comprehensive Childhood Research Center at LMU Munich. His research focuses on understanding the molecular causes of early onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEO-IBD) using a systems biology-driven approach. His laboratory employs advanced omics-based technologies and preclinical models to decode genetic immune signatures associated with VEO-IBD. Kotlarz's work aims to develop novel diagnostic tools and therapies to improve the quality of life for children afflicted with this life-threatening condition. He has contributed significantly to the understanding of the disease's pathogenesis, particularly emphasizing translational research involving monogenic defects and their implications for treatment. Throughout his career, Kotlarz has established collaborations with international experts and institutions, systematically studying VEO-IBD using next-generation sequencing techniques to identify novel genetic signatures and pathways. His impactful publications reflect his commitment to advancing knowledge in immunology and genetics pertaining to pediatric gastrointestinal disorders.
