Dr. Srustidhar Das Karolinska Institutet and University Hospital, Sweden

Dr. Srustidhar Das is a Research Specialist at the Karolinska Institutet’s Department of Medicine, Solna, at the Center for Molecular Medicine (CMM). His research focuses on the interplay between intestinal tissue regeneration and tumorigenesis, particularly in the context of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colorectal cancer (CRC). He has made... read moresignificant contributions to understanding how molecular pathways, such as the Liver X receptor (LXR), can promote intestinal healing while preventing tumor formation—a discovery highlighted in a Nature publication. Dr. Das completed his PhD at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, where he studied mucin-mediated cancer biology, and has continued his postdoctoral research at Karolinska since around 2015, publishing extensively in journals like Nature, Mucosal Immunology, and Cell Reports.
