In 2012, Jeanette became the first female professor at DZHK, a tribute to her exceptional achievements, pioneering spirit and collaborative approach. She established the Institute for Cardiogenetics at the University of Lübeck in 2013, expanding her networks at the national and international levels. She demonstrated her leadership in further consortia, including CARDIoGRAMplusC4D, which united diverse GWAS efforts to enhance the statistical power — an essential component in identifying additional loci associated with CAD or myocardial infarction. As a consequence, she contributed to the identification of almost all known 360 cardiovascular risk loci underscoring her visionary dedication.
