Associate Professor dr. Amanda Foks leads her own research group ‘Aging and Immunity’ at the Division of BioTherapeutics at the Leiden Academic Centre for Drug Research (LACDR, Leiden University). Her research team is dedicated to understand the complex mechanisms underlying the effects of aging on immune cells, and its contributions to atherosclerosis, with the ultimate goal of developing innovative strategies to combat cardiovascular disease.

Biography
Amanda Foks received her PhD in ‘Regulation of immune responses in atherosclerosis’ at the LACDR (Leiden University, the Netherlands) in 2013. Following postdoctoral training in the laboratory of Prof.dr. Lichtman at Harvard Medical School/Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, USA, she established her own research group (Aging and Immunity) focusing on adaptive and age-associated immunity in atherosclerosis at the Division of BioTherapeutics of the LACDR, Leiden University, in 2019. In 2023, Amanda Foks was appointed as Associate Professor. Her team focuses on gaining mechanistic insights into atherosclerosis development, identification of age-associated inflammatory biomarkers and the development of novel anti-inflammatory interventions to treat atherosclerotic CVD.
Research projects are funded by the Dutch Heart Foundation (eg. Junior and Senior Dekker Post-doc grants), NWO (‘MARGINALIZE-MI’), and international research grants include the EIC Pathfinder Challenge Cardiogenomics ‘B-specific’ (coordinator, more information here), ERA-CVD ‘B-eatATHERO’ (coordinator), Leducq Foundation ‘CHECKPOINT-ATHERO’, ERA4Health ‘MARGINALIZE-MI’ (funded by NWO), and BHF-DHF-DZHK Cardiovascular Partnership ‘Treat-ATHERO’.
