International Women's Day 8 March: LKF conducts research on women's health with women leading the way
Kiel and Hamburg, Germany, and Vienna, Austria, 06 March 2020 - LKF - Laboratorium fr Klinische Forschung GmbH, a subsidiary of GBA Group Pharma, is honouring International Women's Day on 8 March 2020 by highlighting the company's female success factors.
"Every day is Women's Day at LKF," says Brbel Wilke, co-founder and CEO of LKF, with 80 percent of its 150 employees being women. Many of the 120 female employees working in the three-storey laboratory are highly qualified specialists and scientists from the fields of chemistry, biology, molecular biology et al.
When the medical-technical assistant Brbel Wilke started analysing blood counts together with Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Junge in 1991, she benefited from the fact that, as the mother of a three-year-old son, she was able to work mostly at night. "Flexibility is not only essential for working mothers, it is also what our customers value most about us. It's in our DNA," says Wilke. For example, LKF not only offers 30 different family-friendly working time models, but also the highest degree of flexibility towards the customer. A recipe for success that has paid off. Since its founding in 1991, LKF has recorded continuous revenue growth of 10-15 percent per year.
Numerous studies in the field of women's health From planning to execution, the broad range of services offered by LFK today covers all aspects of the laboratory part of clinical studies. One of the focal points is the area of Women's Health. "The improvement of women's health is a central research field of the pharmaceutical industry, which we have successfully supported for many years," says Brbel Wilke. In addition to contraception and hormone replacement therapy, this includes in-vitro fertilisation (unfulfilled desire to have children) and osteoporosis therapy.
"Due to the extensive hormone studies, we offer a very large list of specific coagulation parameters. The background here is the potential risk of thrombosis," said Wilke. In the field of menstrual blood quantification, LKF offers a comprehensive solution worldwide.
LFK also has many years of experience in endometriosis studies, a disease in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus is grows outside the uterus. In Germany alone, for example, about 7-15 percent of all women of reproductive age are affected every month. In other countries, the disease rate is up to 20 percent.
Women in the lead "Thanks to their expertise, women play an extremely important role in the success of LKF as well as of other companies in our group," explains Dr. Elisabeth Lackner, CEO of the parent company GBA Group Pharma. "It is no surprise that three of our subsidiaries, Pharmacelsus, GBA Pharma Labs and LKF, are managed by female CEOs."
