Maria Jönsson

Maria Jönsson is an Associate Professor at Uppsala University, affiliated with the Department of Organismal Biology; Physiology and Environmental Toxicology. Her work focuses on molecular mechanisms of chemical toxicity in aquatic and avian species, particularly investigating cytochrome P450 enzyme responses and endocrine disruption.

• Academic Affiliation: Uppsala University
• Roles: Researcher, Deputy Director at Center for Reproductive Biology in Uppsala (CRU)

Her research explores:

• Developmental Toxicology: Chemical impacts on zebrafish and chicken embryos
• Endocrine Disruption: Bisphenols, phthalates, and their metabolites
• Gene Regulation: CYP1 family dynamics under xenobiotic exposure
• Environmental Monitoring: EROD assays in fish gills for pollutant detection

Key article trends include:

• 2016-2020: Chemical mixture effects on embryonic development and metabolism
• 2015-2018: AhR-CYP1 interactions in toxic responses
• 2009-2012: Evolutionary divergence of P450 isoforms and species-specific sensitivity
