Biography

Adhip P N Majumdar received his MS and PhD degrees from the University of London, England, and DSc (Doctor of Science) degree in Gastroenterology from the University of Aarhus, Denmark. He has been a Professor at Wayne State University since 1992. He also holds the post of Senior Research Career Scientist at the Detroit VA Medical Center. Over the past several years his work has been streamlined to uncover the biochemical and physiological pathways governing the growth of gastrointestinal (GI) tract. He has published 200 original scientific articles in peer-reviewed journals and a multitude of book chapters and review articles. He is particularly interested in elucidating the patho-physiology of age-related changes in the GI mucosa, specifically those that lead to malignancy. To this end, he has begun to investigate the role of pluripotent, self-renewing CSCs in the development and progression of GI malignancies. He has been continually funded by the VA and NIH and is considered one of the nation’s leading investigators in gastrointestinal aging and cancer.
