Biography

Stefan Koch is a Senior Associate Professor at Linköping University, primarily investigating cellular signaling that shapes tissue injury repair, inflammatory disorders, and cancer. His research delves into how cells communicate and make decisions based on the exchange of information with their surroundings. For instance, when a wound occurs, cells are activated to actively repair tissue and return to a resting state. However, improper signaling may lead to serious issues such as autoimmune disorders. Koch's research group aims to understand the molecular foundations of complex signaling networks within cells with the ultimate goal of discovering new treatment options for inflammatory diseases and cancer.
