Author Information
Marten H. Hofker is a prominent researcher affiliated with the Molecular Genetics Section, Department of Pediatrics at the University Medical Center Groningen, University of Groningen, in Groningen, The Netherlands. His research primarily focuses on molecular genetics, with significant contributions to understanding inflammation, obesity, gut microbiota, and atherosclerosis.Research Contributions
Dr. Hofker has made substantial contributions to the field of genetics, particularly in understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying inflammation and metabolic disorders. His research has explored the complex interactions between gut microbiota and host metabolism, as well as the genetic factors influencing obesity and atherosclerosis. Notably, his work on the Dutch Microbiome Project has helped define the factors shaping a healthy gut microbiome. Additionally, he has investigated the role of antimicrobial peptides, long non-coding RNAs, and endosomal sorting in disease progression.Aliases
Marten H. Hofker is also known by several variations of his name, including M Hofker, Marten Hofker, Martin H Hofker, M H Hofker, and M. H. Hofker, among others.Publication and Citation Metrics
