Reinoud Gosens (1977) is Professor in Translational Pharmacology at the Faculty of Science and Engineering of the University of Groningen. He obtained his PhD in pharmacology in 2004 at the University of Groningen and performed postdoctoral studies at the University of Manitoba, Canada until 2007. His research is focused on the mechanisms that regulate tissue repair and remodeling in asthma and COPD. In particular, the role and therapeutic potential of muscarinic receptors and Wnt/Frizzled receptor signaling  in tissue repair and remodeling are studied.
