Professor Dr. Anders Palmquist

Biography

Anders Palmquist is a Professor and head of the Department of Biomaterials at the Institute of Clinical Sciences, Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg. His research focuses on understanding the underlying mechanisms of bone formation and maintenance through biomaterials, and the development of new generation biomaterials. These materials and processes are designed to enhance healing in compromised conditions such as osteoporosis, diabetes mellitus, and after radiation therapy. Palmquist has pioneered methods and techniques for correlative analyses of bone interfacing with biomaterials at the nanometer level, creating a unique multiscale multimodal analytical platform that allows for detailed study of the smallest building blocks of bone.
