Biography

Morten Thaysen-Andersen leads the Analytical Glycoimmunology group at Macquarie University, which focuses on advancing the understanding of the human innate immune system and its relation to immune-related diseases, microbial infections, inflammation, and cancer. His team specializes in developing and applying novel glycomics and glycoproteomics technologies using advanced mass spectrometry. Leveraging existing analytical tools from protein carbohydrate chemistry, immunology, structural biology, and molecular biology, the group's aim is to unravel critical glycobiological processes within the innate immune system. Morten's research interests span a range of topics that intersect glycomics and immune response, contributing valuable insights into how carbohydrates affect immune function. He actively oversees multiple projects, focusing on high-content oncoproteomics and altered carbohydrates associated with compromised immune cells in conditions like cystic fibrosis, highlighting his commitment to advancing biomedical research.
