معرفی
Ingrid Fleming is a Professor of Vascular Signalling and Director of the Institute for Vascular Signalling at Goethe University Frankfurt, Germany, where she has served since 2008. She also directs the Centre for Molecular Medicine at the same institution since 2010. Her research focuses on molecular mechanisms underlying vascular biology, diabetes-related vascular complications, and lipid mediator signaling.
- BSc in Pharmacology and Biochemistry (First Class Honours), Aston University (1988)
- PhD in Physiology, Université Louis Pasteur (1991)
- Habilitation in Physiology, Goethe University Frankfurt (1999)
Fleming's work explores the role of cytochrome P450/soluble epoxide hydrolase pathways in vascular function, nitric oxide synthase regulation, and microRNA mechanisms in diabetes. She investigates how lipid mediators and oxidative stress impact endothelial dysfunction and vascular repair processes.
Her publications demonstrate expertise in cardiovascular physiology, angiogenesis, and ischemic injury. Key themes include molecular regulation of endothelial cells, metabolic disorders in diabetes, and therapeutic targeting of epoxyeicosanoid pathways.
- Greenshield Award for Biochemistry (1988)
- Dr. Paul und Cilli Weill-Stiftung (1996)
- Servier Research Prize (1999)
- Heinz Meise-Preis (1999)
- Nitric Oxide Society Young Investigator Award (2000)
- Arthur Weber Prize (2002)
- Schunk-Preis for Medicine (2003)
- President, European Vascular Biology Organization (2010-2013)
- Member, German National Academy of Sciences (2016)
As a Principle Investigator at the German Centre for Cardiovascular Research (since 2011), Fleming leads multidisciplinary research on vascular signaling. She has mentored numerous students and postdocs throughout her career at Goethe University, focusing on translational approaches to cardiovascular diseases.
Her laboratories at the Centre for Molecular Medicine and Institute for Vascular Signalling integrate biochemical, molecular, and physiological techniques to study vascular homeostasis and pathology, with international collaborations including guest professorship at Huazhong University (2018-2021).
