Christopher Filtenborg Brandt

Christopher Filtenborg Brandt serves as a Clinical Associate Professor at the Department of Clinical Medicine within the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at the University of Copenhagen. His clinical and research activities are centered in the Internal Medicine: Gastroenterology and Hepatology section, with primary institutional affiliation through Region Hovedstaden (email: christopher.filtenborg.brandt@regionh.dk).

Dr. Brandt's research focuses on gastrointestinal pathophysiology, particularly Crohn's disease complications, intestinal failure mechanisms, and metabolic responses in short bowel syndrome. His work integrates clinical epidemiology with translational studies on gut hormones like GLP-2, examining disease progression patterns and treatment outcomes through longitudinal cohort analyses and population-based datasets.

Recent publications (2022-2025) demonstrate consistent emphasis on predictive modeling for intestinal rehabilitation outcomes, surgical recurrence in inflammatory bowel disease, and survival analysis in parenteral nutrition-dependent patients. His collaborative approach spans multiple Danish medical centers, leveraging large-scale patient data to address critical gaps in gastroenterology care while developing clinically applicable scoring systems like the CDIF-Wean Score.
