About
Introduction
In September 2021 Sofie Jacobse started at the department as a PhD student. In 2022 she will combine her research with a residency in General Practice (aiotho).
Her research focuses on shared decision-making in the diagnostic phase of medical consultations. The aim is to develop evidence based educational material for the GP vocational training.
Sofie obtained her medical degree at the VU Medical Center in Amsterdam in 2017.
She worked for 3 years as a physician at several departments: pediatrics (Flevoziekenhuis and Jeroen Bosch Ziekenhuis), obstetrics and gynecology (Antonius Ziekenhuis) and psychiatry (Arkin). Additionally, she worked as a junior researcher at the department of pediatric oncology (Amsterdam University Medical center, location VUmc).

Recent Findings
Previous studies in the lab have shown that autologous dendritic cells pulsed with allogenic tumor cell lysate was able to induce peripheral T cell activation and tumor-reactive T cell responses in patients with mesothelioma and pancreatic cancer. Current research focuses on how to initiate an effective immune response in the tumor as well as the tumor-draining lymph node using dendritic cell vaccination. Furthermore, we are studying novel approaches for (personalized) vaccination. In addition, we have identified T cell characteristics that underlie clinical efficacy of immune check inhibitors or chemotherapeutic agents in mesothelioma. The selected publications below give an impression of our work.
