Dr Uhlen received his PhD in chemistry at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm, Sweden in 1984. After a post-doc period at the EMBL in Heidelberg, Germany, he became professor at KTH in 1988. His research has resulted in more than 800 peer-reviewed publications leading to more than 120,000 academic citations with an h-index of 147 (Google Scholar). His focus in science has been technology- and data-driven research, involving protein science, antibody engineering, AI-based systems biology and precision medicine. A list of selected scientific achievements are shown below.
Dr Uhlen has been the Director of the Human Protein Atlas program since the launch in 2003 and was the Founding Director the Science for Life Laboratory (SciLIfeLab) between 2010 and 2015. He is member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Science (IVA), the Royal Swedish Academy of Science (KVA), the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) in USA and the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO). He was the President of the European Federation of Biotechnology (EFB) from 2015 to 2019 and he was the Vice-President of the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) from 1999 to 2001. He is the co-initiator of the annual KTH Innovation Award established in 2020 and the Science and SciLifeLab Prize for Young Scientists established in 2013. He is Honorary Doctor at Chalmers University, Sweden (2011) and Rouen University, France (2020).
Dr. Andreas Greinacher, specialized in transfusion medicine, immunohematology and hemostasis, had been full professor and head of the department of transfusion medicine at the Universitätsmedizin Greifswald, Germany until 2024, where he is now associated as senior professor. His research interests are hereditary and immune-mediated platelet disorders, especially heparin-induced thrombocytopenia and application of biophysics to understand molecular mechanisms of antigenicity of endogenous proteins. He has identified the genetic basis of the HNA-3a antigen, an important cause of TRALI, developed a new, immune based, treatment approach for hemolytic uremic syndrome during the EHEC outbreak in Germany in 2011, and contributed to better understanding of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia. In the 1990s, he was the principal investigator of the studies leading to international approval of recombinant hirudin as the first non-heparin/warfarin anticoagulant. Since 2021, his work on vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) received major attention by the scientific community and the general public, with the most recent identification of VITT-like disorders after (viral) infections and associated with monoclonal gammopathy as causes of severe, recurrent venous and arterial thrombosis.
Over more than 20 years he had been in various functions, Chief of Staff and CEO of the University Hospital Greifswald or Associate Dean of the Medical faculty. He has published more than 600 papers on these topics (Google Scholar H-index 114) and has received several national and international awards including the Award of Analytical Biochemistry of the DGKL in 2022.
