New research director to strengthen collaboration in pathology research
Line Raaby Steenberg has been appointed acting research director for a five-year period in the section for Pathology at the Department of Clinical Medicine. Her own research focuses on foetal and infant death and the role of the placenta.
In her role as acting research director, Line Raaby Steenberg aims to strengthen research in pathology and support collaboration with other specialties.
“It can only succeed through close collaboration with the skilled colleagues who already contribute strong professional expertise and experience. My ambition is to create a supportive framework that enables us to work interdisciplinarily on shared research questions, benefiting both the research and the professional community,” she says.
Line Raaby Steenberg conducts research in perinatal pathology, with a focus on foetal and infant death and the importance of the placenta for pregnancy outcomes. Through interdisciplinary research projects, she works to generate new knowledge about the causes of these deaths and, in the longer term, to contribute to improved prevention.
“My driving force in both my paraclinical work and my research is that no child should die without us understanding why and without us learning from it,” she says.
Line Raaby Steenberg is a consultant in pathology and a clinical associate professor at the Department of Clinical Medicine. She obtained her medical degree (cand.med.) in 2010 and her PhD in 2016 from Aarhus University.
