About me

  • Christopher R. Cederroth received his Ph.D. degree in 2009 from the
    University of Geneva, Switzerland. In the laboratory of Prof. Serge Nef, he
    investigated the molecular mechanisms of endocrine disruption by
    xenoestrogens on sexual development, reproduction and metabolism. His Ph.D.
    work was awarded both the national Endocrinology Prize and the Denber-Pinard
    Prize and led to the creation of a start-up company in the medical food
    sector, named Amazentis S.A.
    In 2009, he moved to New York City as a Swiss National Foundation Advanced
    Fellow, and joined the laboratory of Prof. A. James Hudspeth at the
    Rockefeller University to initiate a study aimed at bringing tinnitus
    research to mice.
    In 2012, thanks to the Wenner Gren Stiftelse and the Nicholson Postdoctoral
    Fellowship, he joined the laboratory of Prof. Barbara Canlon at the
    Karolinska Institutet to investigate the relationship between the circadian
    system and auditory sensitivity.
    Dr. Cederroth has now developed an independent translational axis of research
    focusing on tinnitus. More precisely, he aims at identifying factors
    implicated in tinnitus development in animals in humans, and to develop
    new objective measures of tinnitus.

Research

  • *Research funding - past and present*
    GENDER-NET Co-Plus Fund, H2020 ITN (ESIT), Vetenskapsrådet, Svenska
    Läkaresällskapet, Lars Hiertas Minne, Magnus Bergvalls Stiftelse, Loo och
    Hans Ostermans, Tysta Skolan, Hörselforskningsfonden and Karolinska
    Institutet.
    Please contact us if you are willing to support our research.
    *Collaborations*
    Our research team works in close co-operation with several national and
    international researchers and is part of the COST Action TINNET BM1306 [1].
    Among our partners are experts with extensive experience in pre-clinical
    clinical auditory research, psychologists, geneticists, chemists, basic
    molecular biology research and industries. This constellation of researchers
    enables a deeper understanding of how auditory disorders arise and can be
    cured.
    Follow the progress of our Frontiers Research Topic [2]!
    *Vacant positions*
    We are looking for neuroscientists, cell biologists, biochemists,
    epidemiologists, audiologists, mouse geneticists: I strongly encourage
    scientists to contact me with a letter of interest, CV and letters of
    recommendation. I would be most happy to help with applications for external
    support for those eligible for postdoctoral fellowships (e.g. SSMF, Swedish
    Brain Foundation, Swedish Research Council, HSFP, Wenner Gren Stiftelse).
