Alfonso Reimundez Dubra

Alfonso Reimundez Dubra is a Researcher affiliated with the Center for Research in Molecular Medicine and Chronic Diseases (CIMUS) at the University of Santiago de Compostela. His work focuses on molecular mechanisms of thermoregulation, particularly involving TRPM8 and TRPA1 ion channels. Dr. Dubra holds a PhD in Physiology from the University of Santiago de Compostela, awarded in 2020 for his thesis analyzing the role of cold-sensing ion channels in thermal and metabolic balance.

His research interests span neurophysiology, chronobiology, and metabolic disorders, with emphasis on how temperature-sensing pathways influence energy homeostasis. Key findings include the discovery of TRPM8's role in regulating circadian rhythms and body temperature oscillations, as well as its impact on obesity-related metabolic pathways through heat loss modulation.

Recent publications highlight advancements in understanding sex-based differences in thermoregulation and the molecular basis of cold-sensing neural circuits. Despite no listed awards or grants in available records, his work contributes significantly to translational research in metabolic medicine and chronobiology.
