معرفی
Raphaelle Winsky-Sommerer is a Senior Lecturer in Sleep and Circadian Rhythms at the School of Biosciences, University of Surrey, UK, within the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences. Her research focuses on sleep regulation, circadian rhythms, and their molecular mechanisms, particularly involving GABAA receptors and aging-related neurobiology.
Education:
- Ph.D. in Cellular & Molecular Biology (Biology of Ageing), University of René Descartes Paris 5, France (1998-2002)
- Master in Biochemistry & Biology of Ageing, University of Paris 5 & 7, France (1996-1998)
Research Interests: She investigates how circadian rhythms and sleep are modulated by pharmacological agents and molecular pathways, with recent work exploring metabolomic rhythms in voles and aging mechanisms in the hippocampus. Her studies bridge basic neuroscience, chronobiology, and translational research.
Recent Work Trends: Her 2023 publications highlight advancements in understanding ultradian/diurnal metabolomic cycles and post-transcriptional aging dynamics in the brain, reflecting her interdisciplinary approach to sleep and age-related neurobiology.
