Research Interests: Dr. Lundin investigates the immunological mechanisms of celiac disease, including gluten-specific T-cell responses, transglutaminase inhibitors, and gut microbiota interactions. His work addresses dietary adherence, non-invasive diagnostics, and longitudinal outcomes in autoimmune enteropathies.

Scientific Contributions: Recent publications emphasize genetic variants in celiac disease, transcriptomic changes post-therapy, and biomarker development. Collaborative studies explore vaccine responses in autoimmune patients and dietary interventions for persistent symptoms.

Advising and Collaborations: He mentors researchers like Shiva Dahal-Koirala and Louise Fremgaard Risnes. His projects include clinical trials (e.g., BIOSTOP) and multicenter longitudinal studies.
