Daniel Fürst
Coordination of HLA Typing
PD. Dr. med. Daniel Fürst
Daniel Fürst is head of the Department of Transplantation Immunology in the Institute for Clinical Transfusion Medicine and Immunogenetics Ulm (gGmbH). We are a subsidiary of the University of Ulm and the German Red Cross Blood Donation Services Baden-Württemberg/Hessen. Our focus is histocompatibility typing for patients and donors in hematopoetic stem cell transplantation and unrelated donor search. We perform NGS based high resolution HLA-typing for clinical diagnostics as well as volunteer donor registration. Research interests are identification of genetic markers for the success of unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, optimal unrelated donor search, genetics of the HLA-System, next-generation-sequencing technology and population genetics of the HLA-System.
