Pål Stenmark (born 14 April 1976) is a Swedish biochemist and structural biologist. He was appointed professor of Structural Biochemistry at Lund University in 2019[1] and was appointed professor in Neurochemistry at Stockholm University in 2021.[2]

Stenmark's research focus on two different areas:

  1. The Botulinum and Tetanus Neurotoxins.[3]
  2. Enzymes in nucleotide metabolism and DNA repair.

Stenmark is among other things known for his discovery of several novel neurotoxins,[4] including a neurotoxin that specifically kills Malaria mosquitos.[5][6]
