Overview

Arjan C. Lankester is affiliated with Leiden University Medical Center in the Netherlands. Their research primarily focuses on the fields of medicine, immunology, and microbiology with a significant emphasis on hematology and immunology within these areas.

Their work spans several subfields, including hematology, immunology, genetics, public health, environmental and occupational health, and pediatrics, perinatology and child health. The main research topics addressed by Lankester encompass hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, acute lymphoblastic leukemia research, immunodeficiency and autoimmune disorders, immune cell function and interaction, acute myeloid leukemia research, childhood cancer survivors' quality of life, and hemoglobinopathies and related disorders.

Frequent publication venues for their research include:

  • Bone Marrow Transplantation
  • Blood
  • Journal of Clinical Immunology
  • Transplantation and Cellular Therapy
  • Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology

Lankester has collaborated extensively with various researchers, most notably Bénédicte Neven, Andrew R. Gennery, Michael H. Albert, Frans J. Smiers, and Erik G. J. von Asmuth.

Selected recent papers illustrate the scope and focus of their research contributions:

  • EBMT/ESID inborn errors working party guidelines for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for inborn errors of immunity, 2021, Bone Marrow Transplantation
  • Hematopoietic cell transplantation and cellular therapy survey of the EBMT: monitoring of activities and trends over 30 years, 2021, Bone Marrow Transplantation
  • Indications for haematopoietic cell transplantation for haematological diseases, solid tumours and immune disorders: current practice in Europe, 2022, Bone Marrow Transplantation
  • The challenge of COVID-19 and hematopoietic cell transplantation; EBMT recommendations for management of hematopoietic cell transplant recipients, their donors, and patients undergoing CAR T-cell therapy, 2020, Bone Marrow Transplantation
  • The EBMT activity survey on hematopoietic-cell transplantation and cellular therapy 2018: CAR-T's come into focus, 2020, Bone Marrow Transplantation

The concentration of publications in Bone Marrow Transplantation and related journals underlines a specialized interest in transplantation and cellular therapy within hematology and immunology. Their research covers both clinical guidelines and epidemiological surveys, reflecting involvement in both practical and systemic aspects of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and associated immune disorders.
