Jan Calissendorff

Jan Calissendorff is an Associate Professor at Karolinska Institutet's Department of Molecular Medicine and Surgery, affiliated with the Growth and Metabolism research group led by Sergiu-Bogdan Catrina. His research focuses on adrenal/thyroid disorders, hyponatremia, and neuroendocrine tumors.

Education: He earned his doctoral degree in 2008 and became Associate Professor in Endocrinology in 2020, both from Karolinska Institutet.

Research Focus: Dr. Calissendorff investigates clinical endocrinology with emphasis on Graves' disease, pheochromocytoma, and medication-induced electrolyte imbalances. His work combines population registries, molecular diagnostics, and clinical outcomes research to advance treatment protocols for endocrine disorders.

Publication Trends: His recent articles (2022–2025) reveal three key themes: (1) adrenal/thyroid tumor diagnostics and genetics, (2) epidemiological studies on hyponatremia triggers, and (3) long-term outcomes of endocrine therapies. Methodologically, he favors register-based cohort designs with translational applications.

Awards: No scientific awards are documented in available sources.

Laboratory Affiliations: He conducts research within the Growth and Metabolism group, which specializes in molecular mechanisms of endocrine diseases and metabolic regulation.
