Philip Rosenstiel is a

director of the Institute of Clinical Molecular Biology and a professor of clinical molecular biology at Kiel University.[1]

Rosenstiel is most known for his work on the pathophysiology of chronic inflammatory diseases, primarily focusing on developing innovative biomarkers and new therapeutic approaches. His work has been published in academic journals including Nature, Nature Genetics, Cell Metabolism and Immunity.[2]

Education

Rosenstiel obtained a

BMEP and the Studienstiftung.[1]

Career

Rosenstiel's academic career began as a BMEP

postdoctoral fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics between 2005 and 2007. He served as a professor of Molecular and Marine Medicine at Kiel University from 2007 to 2012. Following this, he was appointed as a professor of molecular medicine between 2012 and 2016. Since 2012, he has been the director of the Institute of Clinical Molecular Biology, and since 2016 a professor of clinical molecular biology at Kiel University.[1]

Rosenstiel has been a member of the steering board of the International Human Epigenome Consortium since 2017[3] and is spokesperson of the Precision Health in Schleswig-Holstein, a governance body to foster clinical translational research in Schleswig-Holstein. Since 2022, he has been serving as vice-dean for research at the Medical Faculty in Kiel.[4]

Research

Rosenstiel has employed methods from systems immunology and utilized genomic techniques such as single-cell analysis to create novel biomarkers and explore innovative therapeutic strategies. He contributed to the pilot phase of the 1000 Genomes Project, participated in the German International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) on malignant lymphoma and led the large European Horizon 2020 Project on Systems Medicine in Chronic Inflammation (SYSCID).[5][6] He has authored publications with a specific focus on the pathophysiology of chronic inflammatory diseases, including articles in peer-reviewed journals.[2] He has authored over 450 scientific publications until end of 2023 with a specific focus on chronic inflammatory diseases. In December 2023 he had an h-index over 113 and his articles received over 76908 citations.[2]

Pathophysiology of chronic inflammatory diseases

Rosenstiel's work on mechanisms of chronic inflammatory diseases, particularly human chronic inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), investigates the role of the intestinal epithelium for the crosstalk between the microbiota and mucosal immune responses.[7][8][9] A particular focus has been on the role of autophagy and ER stress as basic principles of epithelial differentiation and Paneth cell function.[10][11][12] His showed a link between the defective removal of RNA nucleotides during proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells, mucosal inflammation and colorectal cancer formation.[13] With Josef Penninger and others, he demonstrated that a lack of the ACE2 enzyme, responsible for controlling the renin-angiotensin system, disrupts the balance of the amino acid tryptophan in the intestinal epithelium. This in turn leads to impaired antimicrobial peptide production in the gut, leading to increased susceptibility to colitis and intestinal inflammation.[14] He has contributed to early clinical therapy developments, e.g. IL-6 transsignalling inhibition in IBD (olamkicept phase II trial) or sterile-filtered fecal material transfer for C. difficile infection.[15][16]

Molecular profiling and biomarkers of disease

Rosenstiel's work has also focused on biomarker development in chronic inflammatory diseases and cancer. Here, he mostly employed multi-omics techniques, e.g. transcriptomics and methylomics[17][18] and microbiome analysis[19] to develop predictions for individual trajectories of disease and to stratify patients for different targeted therapies. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he was founding member of the DeCOI consortium and led analyses, which identified megakaryocyte expression signatures as a marker for fatal disease course.[20]
