Overview

Stefan Roos is affiliated with the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Sweden. Their research primarily focuses on biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology, with additional work in medicine. They have contributed significantly to subfields such as molecular biology, food science, microbiology, nutrition and dietetics, and infectious diseases.

Roos's main research topics include probiotics and fermented foods, gut microbiota and health, antimicrobial peptides and activities, infant nutrition and health, viral gastroenteritis research and epidemiology, bacteriophages and microbial interactions, and gastrointestinal motility and disorders.

Frequent coauthors in Roos's work are L. Lundberg, Yuying Liu, Mia Phillipson, J. Marc Rhoads, and Gianfranco Grompone. They have published regularly in journals such as Frontiers in Microbiology, Microorganisms, the American Journal of Physiology-Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology, Probiotics and Antimicrobial Proteins, and Gastroenterology.
