Tim Raine is a consultant gastroenterologist and clinical lead for the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) service at Addenbrooke's Hospital, with a research focus on understanding the regulation of the gastrointestinal immune system, particularly in the context of IBD. He is trained as a mucosal immunologist and aims to understand the biology of tissue-resident cells in both innate and adaptive immune systems. He completed his PhD and postdoctoral work in collaboration with prominent researchers at the University of Cambridge and King's College, London. Raine has developed novel techniques for the extraction and characterization of immunocytes from human gut endoscopic biopsies, using advanced methods such as polychromatic flow cytometry and live cell confocal microscopy. In 2015, he was appointed an honorary faculty member at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, where he has been working on understanding the transcriptomic landscape of individual cell populations in the human gut. Raine also leads clinical trials for IBD and serves in significant roles within professional organizations related to gastroenterology. His contributions to medical literature include being a senior author on the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine and authoring chapters in significant textbooks related to Crohn's disease.
