Rodger A. Liddle

Rodger A. Liddle is a Professor in the Department of Medicine at Duke University. His research focuses on enteroendocrine cells and pancreatic biology and pathobiology, with significant contributions to understanding hormone secretion regulation and gut-neurological communication.

• Key Research Areas: Enteroendocrine cell biology, neuropod structure/function, gut-brain axis, neurodegenerative disease mechanisms, and gastrointestinal regeneration.

Dr. Liddle pioneered the discovery of enteroendocrine cell "neuropods" that interface with the nervous system, opening new avenues for studying gut-to-brain signaling and potential pathogenic mechanisms. This work has implications for understanding neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's.
