Abstract
Dr. Charlotte Steenblock is a group leader at the Department of Internal Medicine at the Carl Gustav Carus University Clinic in Dresden, Germany. Her research focuses on stem and progenitor cells of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. Using animal models of physical and metabolic stress, she investigates the role of different kinds of stress on the proliferation, differentiation, and migration of these stem and progenitor cells. Furthermore, she aims to differentiate pluripotent stem cells into steroid-producing adrenal cortex-like cells that can ultimately serve as cell replacement therapies for patients suffering from adrenal insufficiency or congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Lastly, Dr. Steenblock researches the connections between metabolic and endocrine diseases and infectious diseases, including post-acute infectious syndromes such as long-COVID. Dr. Steenblock is happy to answer the Genomic Press Interview, providing our readers with reflections on her life and career.
