He took up postdoctoral positions at the AMC in Amsterdam (prof Guy Boeckxstaens) and Oxford University (prof Siamon Gordon). He chairs the gastro-intestinal research group (www.gut-research.com) at the AMC since 2013 and holds a part time W2 professorship at the Dept of Surgery at the University of Bonn, Germany.<\/p>\n<p>He is interested in gastrointestinal physiology, nutrition, and the function of neural networks within the gastrointestinal tract, in particular in relation to the mechanisms involved in functional bowel disorders (IBS), and chronic inflammation of the GI tract (IBD, EoE). His research has translational nature and involves basic as well as clinical studies. His work is funded via national Science Foundation grants (NWO-Vidi-STW), EU FP7 and Horizon2020 grants, Marie Curie IEF (Oxford), Health Holland TKI topsector grants, and multiple public private partnership grants. He is currently coordinating a Marie Curie industrial training network (EpiMac; www.epimac.eu) aimed at understanding epigenetic marks that shape differentiation of inflammatory cells. He is working with the Galvani Bioelectronics network consortium since 2014 and currently leading a large-scale project on the development of Bioelectronic medicine for IBD.<\/p>\n<p>He served on the board of the scientific committees a.o. national trust for Gastro Intestinal and Liver Diseases, and is founder of the spin off company Gut-research Services (http:\/\/gut-research-services.com) aimed to facilitate industry collaborations in the field of gastro intestinal diseases.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biotechpharmasummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/De_Jonge-Wouter_Gut_Week_BioTech_Pharma_Summit_AMC_Amsterdam_Microbiome_3_profile.png\" alt=\"De_Jonge-Wouter_Gut_Week_BioTech_Pharma_Summit_AMC_Amsterdam_Microbiome_3_profile\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"1224\" width=\"820\" title=\"De_Jonge-Wouter_Gut_Week_BioTech_Pharma_Summit_AMC_Amsterdam_Microbiome_3_profile\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 100vw\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml;utf8,<svg%20xmlns=&quot;http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg&quot;%20viewBox=&quot;0%200%20820%201224&quot;%20height=&quot;1224px&quot;%20width=&quot;820px&quot;\/>&#8221; data-srcset=&#8221;https:\/\/www.biotechpharmasummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/De_Jonge-Wouter_Gut_Week_BioTech_Pharma_Summit_AMC_Amsterdam_Microbiome_3_profile.png 820w, https:\/\/www.biotechpharmasummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/De_Jonge-Wouter_Gut_Week_BioTech_Pharma_Summit_AMC_Amsterdam_Microbiome_3_profile-201&#215;300.png 201w, https:\/\/www.biotechpharmasummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/De_Jonge-Wouter_Gut_Week_BioTech_Pharma_Summit_AMC_Amsterdam_Microbiome_3_profile-686&#215;1024.png 686w, https:\/\/www.biotechpharmasummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/De_Jonge-Wouter_Gut_Week_BioTech_Pharma_Summit_AMC_Amsterdam_Microbiome_3_profile-768&#215;1146.png 768w, https:\/\/www.biotechpharmasummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/De_Jonge-Wouter_Gut_Week_BioTech_Pharma_Summit_AMC_Amsterdam_Microbiome_3_profile-630&#215;940.png 630w, https:\/\/www.biotechpharmasummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/De_Jonge-Wouter_Gut_Week_BioTech_Pharma_Summit_AMC_Amsterdam_Microbiome_3_profile-420&#215;627.png 420w, https:\/\/www.biotechpharmasummit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/De_Jonge-Wouter_Gut_Week_BioTech_Pharma_Summit_AMC_Amsterdam_Microbiome_3_profile-315&#215;470.png 315w&#8221;>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<h3>\n\tTitle: Bioelectronic Medicine: Principle and Feasibility\n\t<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Depending on disease and organ involved, recent data indicate a critical role for sympathathetic nerves (that innervate lymphoid organs) to regulate gut immunity<\/li>\n<li>The clinical utilization of the innovative principle of bioelectronic medicine is directly within reach, as implant- able devices to treat chronic disease are already FDA approved and tested in pioneering trials of vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) that may be applied to other neurons; Next research should focus on the mechanism of action of this type of therapy allowing the implementation of Bioelectronics as medicine-free treatment in chronic inflammatory diseases<\/li>\n<li>Sympathetic activity gives rise to newly identified effector T lymphocytes that are particularly responsive to neuronal activity leading us to hypothesize that sympathetic nerve activity is a critical regulator of immune homeostasis and immune defense in the gut<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t<a href=\"\" target=\"_self\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n\t\t\t\t\tPresentation not available\n\t<\/a>\n<h4>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"#\" title=\"On the Web\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n\tOn the Web\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/h4>\n\t<p><a title=\"Website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gut-research.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.gut-research.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h4>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"#\" title=\"On LinkedIn\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\n\tOn LinkedIn\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/h4>\n\t<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/wouter-de-jonge-3aaa0010\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Visit Profile<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><!-- .vgblk-rw-wrapper -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wouter de Jonge Professor of Neurogastroenterology at AMC, CoFounder of Gut Research Professor Wouter de Jonge received his doctoral training at University of Utrecht, and Columbia University, and received his Phd in 2001 (Medicine, University of Amsterdam and Maastricht).
