Overview

Kirsten Lauber is affiliated with Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München in Germany. Their research spans multiple fields, primarily focused on medicine as well as biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology. Key subfields within their work include immunology, molecular biology, cancer research, radiology, nuclear medicine and imaging, and oncology.

The scientist's research topics cover a range of subjects, including glioma diagnosis and treatment, immune cells in cancer, phagocytosis and immune regulation, medical imaging techniques and applications, neutrophil, myeloperoxidase and oxidative mechanisms, head and neck cancer studies, and effects of radiation exposure.

Among their recent publications are:

  • Radiation-induced lung toxicity - cellular and molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis, management, and literature review (2020, Radiation Oncology)
  • Analysis of clonogenic growth in vitro (2021, Nature Protocols)
  • The clonogenic assay: robustness of plating efficiency-based analysis is strongly compromised by cellular cooperation (2020, Radiation Oncology)
  • Early senescence and production of senescence-associated cytokines are major determinants of radioresistance in head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma (2021, Cell Death and Disease)
  • Tumor-Specific Delivery of 5-Fluorouracil-Incorporated Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-Targeted Aptamers as an Efficient Treatment in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Models (2021, Gastroenterology)

Frequent coauthors in Kirsten Lauber's work include Claus Belka, Horst Zitzelsberger, Kristian Unger, Julia Heß, and Katja Steiger. Collaboration networks suggest a strong connection to researchers specializing in oncology and radiobiology.

Publication venues where Kirsten Lauber has frequently contributed are Laryngo-Rhino-Otologie, Radiation Oncology, Pancreatology, Radiotherapy and Oncology, and Frontiers in Oncology. These venues align with the thematic concentration of their research in cancer treatment and radiation effects.
