About

Professor Ben Schöttker has been a faculty member at the German Cancer Research Center since December 2024. His research primarily focuses on cardiovascular disease, mortality associated with selenium status, and the role of inflammation-related proteomes in risk prediction. Recent publications highlight his work on metabolomics, vitamin D supplementation, and the impact of obesity on colorectal cancer risk. Professor Schöttker's contributions refine risk assessment methodologies for chronic diseases in older adults.
