stephanie bjerrum - Infectious Diseases

Author Information

Stephanie Bjerrum is affiliated with the Department of Infectious Diseases at Odense University Hospital in Odense, Denmark. Her research primarily focuses on infectious diseases with a particular emphasis on tuberculosis diagnosis, especially among people living with HIV. Her work also extends to the study of bloodstream infections and antimicrobial resistance in neonatal intensive care units in Ghana, showcasing a commitment to improving diagnostic strategies and understanding infectious disease dynamics in vulnerable populations.

Research Contributions

Stephanie Bjerrum has made significant contributions to the field of infectious diseases through her research on tuberculosis and HIV co-infection. Her studies have explored the diagnostic accuracy of various testing methods, such as the lipoarabinomannan assay for tuberculosis, which is particularly crucial for people living with HIV. Additionally, her research has delved into the prevalence of multidrug-resistant bacteria in neonatal intensive care settings in Ghana, highlighting the global challenge of antimicrobial resistance. Through systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and individual participant data studies, she has contributed valuable insights into improving diagnostic strategies and understanding the epidemiology of infectious diseases.
