William Winston Agace is a Professor at the University of Copenhagen, specializing in Skin Immunology. His primary research focuses on Barrier Immunology, particularly the cellular and molecular mechanisms regulating immune responses at barrier surfaces, with an emphasis on the intestine. He investigates how cell populations and environmental factors interact to maintain local immune homeostasis and how alterations in these interactions contribute to systemic inflammation. His work also examines the role of intestinal fibroblasts in regulating immune function, especially concerning inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Beyond basic research, Agace directs the Center for Intestinal Immune Regulation, which aims to explore novel treatment modalities for IBD and identify biomarkers for disease severity and treatment response. He collaborates with several renowned institutions and utilizes cutting-edge techniques in single-cell analysis and transgenic animal models.
Focuses on clinical, social, and cognitive psychology.
