Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Asim Shabbir's research focuses on gastrointestinal and metabolic diseases, with a particular emphasis on bariatric surgery, gastric cancer, and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). He has investigated risk prediction models for mortality following esophagectomy for cancer and contributed to consensus statements on patient selection for bariatric procedures, including one-anastomosis/mini gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy. His work also explores the molecular mechanisms underlying these conditions, such as the role of GLI in mTOR-induced PD-L1 expression in gastric cancer and the regulation of adipogenic differentiation by interferon regulatory factor 3.

Shabbir's publications include studies on the single-cell atlas of lineage states and tumor microenvironment in gastric cancer, and outcomes after minimally invasive versus hybrid and open esophagectomy. He has also contributed to recommendations for the screening, diagnosis, and management of MASLD in patients with cardiovascular disease. With an h-index of 44 and over 7,700 citations across 378 publications, his scholarship is recognized as high-impact.

His research network includes collaborations with numerous international researchers, as evidenced by his involvement in multi-center studies like the International Esodata Study Group. Shabbir maintains an active lab website, underscoring his ongoing engagement in research and scholarship.
