معرفی
Omar Lozano Garcia is a Researcher at the University of Namur, actively contributing to nanoparticle toxicology, materials safety, and biomedical engineering. His work spans regulatory frameworks, environmental health impacts, and nanomaterial-biointerface studies.
- Doctor of Sciences (2009): Nb-doped In2O3 thin films
- Master in Economics (2015): Oil price impacts on economies
Research focuses on: Nanoparticle biodistribution (SiC/TiO2 in lungs/cardiovascular systems), toxicological mechanisms (ROS inhibition, protein corona shielding), and regulatory testing (NANOREG, NanoValid projects). Key methodologies include micro-PIXE, in vivo models, and physicochemical characterization.
Recent publications highlight: 2019 cardiac effects in hypertensive rats, 2016 physicochemical evaluations of food-grade nanoparticles, and 2015 pulmonary toxicity models.
- Chargé de Recherche (2014)
- 2013 Fellowship for SiC nanoparticle biodistribution studies
He contributes to datasets and participates in major conferences including EuroNanoForum 2015 and Nanosafe 2014, focusing on harmonizing safety testing protocols across Europe.
