The Börgeson Laboratory is a translational research group based at Aarhus University and Sahlgrenska University Hospital. We are also affiliated with the Wallenberg Centre for Molecular and Translational Medicine, a national hub for world-class life science research in Sweden.
Our research focuses on various aspects of cardiometabolic disease, with a particular emphasis on inflammatory resolution. To address our hypotheses in a translational framework, we combine experimental models with clinical basic research—an approach that relies on state-of-the-art laboratory and clinical facilities.
Our main laboratory is located at the Steno Diabetes Center Aarhus, part of Aarhus University Hospital. Steno supports a broad range of research activities and emphasizes a patient-centered approach aimed at preventing and treating diabetes and cardiometabolic disease. A cornerstone of our translational work is the use of human-derived material, including biobanked samples and ex vivo tissue cultures.
