Hermann Christof Einsele (born 1958) is a German hematologist and oncologist and professor at the Julius Maximilians University of Würzburg.

Life and education

[edit]

Hermann Einsele was born in Stuttgart, the son of Ruth and Gerhard Einsele. After graduating from high school, he studied medicine in Tübingen, Manchester and London and graduated in 1984 with the medical state examination.

During his time as an assistant physician at the University Hospital of Tübingen, he undertook research at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry in Martinsried and at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, United States. In 1986 he received his doctor’s degree on the subject of "Investigation of peroxidative reactions in erythrocytes".[1] His habilitation followed in 1992.

In 1999, Einsele was appointed associate professor. In 2004, he succeeded Klaus Wilms as Director of the Medical Clinic and Polyclinic II of the University Hospital Würzburg and has since held the Chair of Internal Medicine II at Julius-Maximilians-University of Würzburg. In 2014 he was elected to the Academy of Science and Literature Mainz.[2] From 2015 to 2021, Einsele was one of the five vice presidents of the University of Würzburg.

Scientific work

[edit]

Einsele is considered one of the world’s leading experts in the field of multiple myeloma, cellular immunotherapy (CAR T cells, bispecific antibodies) and invasive aspergillosis in hematological and oncological patients.

His research is funded by the German Research Foundation, the EU funding programs, the EU Commission (EU FP5,[3] EU FP6,[4] EU FP7,[5] EU Horizon Europe), the German Cancer Aid, the German José Carreras Leukemia Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, and the Wilhelm Sander Foundation, among others.

In 2003 he received the Van Bekkum Award[6] of the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, the highest annual European award for research in the field of stem cell transplantation. In 2013, the “Wilhelm Sander Therapy Unit Multiple Myeloma” was founded at the University Hospital of Würzburg, which is funded by the Wilhelm Sander Foundation and headed by Einsele together with Stefan Knop.[7]

For the period from January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2021, Einsele was elected Chairman of the German Society for Hematology and Oncology (DGHO).[8]
