This episode is hosted by IFFGD’s Hayley McCorkle and features our 2009 Research Award Winner Dr. Martin Storr. Dr. Martin Storr is a Gastroenterology professor at the University of Munich in Germany and has a private practice with a small local hospital. Since his transition to Germany 10 years ago, he shifted from academic investigator to clinical private practitioner.
Dr. Storr focuses on understanding gastrointestinal function and structures that may be targeted for new treatments of functional gastrointestinal disorders. Dr. Storr’s specific interests are to understand the role of the cannabinoid and the opioid systems in the control of gut function and to explore their future potential for treatments for functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs).
