Biography

Martine Camilla Holst Sørensen is an Associate Professor at the University of Copenhagen, with a research focus on studying phage-host interactions at the molecular level using diverse molecular tools, whole genome sequencing, and bioinformatic analyses. Her work aims to develop novel phage-based approaches for targeted pathogen control and applies concepts from genetic engineering, synthetic biology, and phage microevolution. This research addresses the prevalence of Campylobacter, a leading enteric pathogen and common cause of food-borne diarrhea worldwide, which can lead to severe complications such as immune disorders and inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn's disease. Given the urgency for new strategies to prevent and treat human cases, her work is significant in public health. Over the last five years, she has engaged in various collaborations across Europe to further these research areas and enhance the impact of her findings.
