Over Ellen van den Bogaard

Ellen van den Bogaard studied biomedical sciences at the Radboud University (Nijmegen) and obtained her PhD in 2014 at the Dermatology department of the Radboudumc. She was appointed as full professor in 2021. Ellen heads the Laboratory for Experimental Dermatology at Department of Dermatology and is a Research Group Leader affiliated to the Radboudumc.

"My group studies skin biology and pathophysiology of inflammatory skin diseases. Our aim is to translate findings in basic science to applications in diagnostics and treatment of human disease. We therefore consider our research lines to have a true translational character. Over the years we have developed multiple 3D tissue engineered (organotypic) skin disease models to study the interaction between epidermal keratinocytes, immune cells and the skin microbiome. The combination of these state-of-the-art culture models with advanced (next generation sequencing-based) methods enables us to elucidate disease mechanisms, identify novel targets for drug development and the screening of potentially new dermatological therapies.
