About me

Gunnar P. Nilsson was appointed Professor of Experimental Allergy Research at Karolinska Institutet in 2008. His research is mainly focused on understanding the role of the mast cell in asthma and other inflammatory diseases – and to find ways to inhibit it locally in order to stop or reduce chronic inflammation.
