• Expertise in lipid metabolism and mitochondrial bioenergetics
• Teaches Master's course on Food Science: Principles and Applications
• Key research areas: diet-related diseases, neurodegeneration, and marine biochemistry

Her scientific work focuses on:

• Nutritional/hormonal regulation of lipid enzymes
• Pathological lipid metabolism in NASH and diabetes
• Brain cholesterol in Alzheimer's disease
• Lipid peroxidation in psychiatric disorders
• Marine animal lipid synthesis mechanisms

Article trends show sustained investigation into mitochondrial carriers (tricarboxylate, citrate), dietary interventions for liver diseases, and lipid metabolism connections to:

• Neurodegenerative disorders
• Cancer progression
• Psychosocial stress responses
• Inflammatory disease treatment
