GASTROENTEROLOGY & PANCREATICOBILIARY

Our Gastroenterology and Pancreaticobiliary research program is dedicated to advancing the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders affecting the digestive system. Our work spans a broad spectrum of conditions and mechanisms related to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and associated organs, including the pancreas, liver, gallbladder, and bile duct.

Research in this field has played a critical role in improving outcomes for patients suffering from complex digestive diseases. Recent advances in molecular biology, genetics, and imaging technologies have enabled our scientists and partners to uncover the biological underpinnings of GI disorders, facilitating the development of more precise diagnostics, targeted therapies, and preventive strategies.

We focus on a variety of digestive conditions, including:

  • Crohn's Disease
  • Ulcerative Colitis
  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
  • Pancreatitis
  • Hepatobiliary Diseases
  • Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)
  • Colorectal and Pancreatic Cancers

A significant area of our current focus is the gut microbiome—the complex community of microbes that live in the digestive tract. Emerging research has shown that imbalances in the microbiome are linked to a range of conditions, from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to colorectal cancer. We are actively involved in studies exploring how microbiome alterations and external factors—such as diet, environment, and medications like antibiotics—influence disease onset and progression.

Through innovative, patient-centric clinical trials, Tupalin Research is helping to shape the future of gastroenterology care by supporting therapies that are more effective, personalized, and aligned with the biological complexity of digestive health.
