Biography

Susanne Brix is a Professor and Academic Leader at the Technical University of Denmark. Leading the Section of Medical Biotechnology within the Department of Biotechnology and Biomedicine, she specializes in disease systems immunology. Her research extensively explores host-microbiota interactions in relation to lifestyle-mediated diseases, with a particular focus on allergies, asthma, inflammatory bowel diseases, and obesity-related disorders. Brix is dedicated to understanding the early-life programming of immune function and the mechanisms that control immune regulation at barrier sites like the gut and lungs. Her work employs advanced high-throughput single-cell technologies and high-sensitivity antibody-based assays to define functional immune cell subsets and their roles in health and disease. Brix actively contributes to the academic community through her leadership in projects linking microbiome-immune interactions to childhood asthma and other disease trajectories, hence supporting the UN Sustainable Development Goals through her insightful research contributions.
