Short CV
Thaddeus Stappenbeck received his B.A. degree as a member of the Integrated Science Program at Northwestern University. He obtained and M.D. and Ph.D. from Northwestern University Medical School. He trained in anatomic pathology at Washington University School of Medicine and is board certified in this specialty. He studied host-microbial interactions in the intestine as a postdoctoral fellow with Jeffrey Gordon at Washington University. He was appointed as an Assistant Professor in 2003 in the Department of Pathology and Immunology at Washington University. He was promoted to Professor in 2013 and received a named professorship in 2016. He became Division Chief of Lab and Genomic Medicine at Washington University Pathology and Immunology in 2016. He moved to Cleveland Clinic in 2019 and is currently the chair of Inflammation and Immunity.
