Lars Engstrand group
In the Engstrand group, we have established a highly effective translational scientific environment, with a broad interdisciplinary approach to the interface between epidemiology and the microbiological, immunological and genetic aspects of chronic diseases. Our goal is to clarify the pathogenic mechanisms within the fields of gastroenterology, women’s health and cancer, define what is a normal and healthy microbiome, and to improve the prospects for primary prevention.
