Erik Berglund, M.D., Ph.D., is an Associate Professor of Experimental
Transplantation Surgery at Karolinska Institute focused mainly on
transplantation tolerance, novel immunosuppression treatments in allo- and
xenotransplantation, organ machine perfusion, and ischemia-reperfusion
injury.
Erik is trained at Karolinska Institute and Karolinska University Hospital
where he specialized in Transplantation Surgery and Translational Immunology.
Erik earned his Ph.D. degree discovering novel molecular biology aspects of
soft tissue sarcomas and has worked as a faculty member at Columbia
University and the Columbia Center for Translational Immunology (CCTI) in New
York.
