Chandra Pareek

Prof. Chandra Pareek is a Professor at the Department of Infectious and Invasive Diseases and Veterinary Administration, Institute of Veterinary Medicine, Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń, Poland. His research focuses on veterinary science, animal genetics, and nutritional physiology, with a strong emphasis on transcriptomics, lipid metabolism, and reproductive biology in livestock. He has authored 84 publications, supervised 3 doctoral theses, and led 3 research projects. His work includes studies on gene expression modulation by dietary fatty acids, molecular mechanisms in bovine and porcine reproduction, and proteomic responses to nutritional stress.

Key achievements include pioneering RNA-Seq applications in livestock genomics, identifying genetic markers for fertility defects in cattle, and advancing understanding of omega-3 fatty acid effects on telomere biology. His research integrates next-generation sequencing technologies with clinical veterinary practices, addressing both fundamental and applied aspects of animal health.

• Education: Ph.D. (Year unspecified), Doctor hab. (1999)
• Affiliations: Institute of Veterinary Medicine, Faculty of Biological and Veterinary Sciences
• Grants/Projects: 3 active research projects (details unspecified)

His lab specializes in transcriptome analysis of livestock tissues (liver, pituitary, muscle), with particular attention to growth hormone regulation and metabolic disorders. Collaborative efforts include multi-center studies on bovine mastitis resistance and porcine spermatozoa viability under cryopreservation.
