Renate Schreiber

Dr. Renate Schreiber is a researcher at the Institute of Molecular Biosciences at the University of Graz, Austria, and affiliated with the BioHealth research profile area. She specializes in molecular mechanisms of lipid metabolism and thermogenesis, with a focus on ATGL-mediated lipolysis and adipose tissue regulation.

• Key research areas: Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Lipid Research
• Active participant in the Doctoral School of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry

Scientific Contributions: Her work explores how lipolysis regulates thermogenic processes in cardiac and adipose tissues, particularly under cold exposure and fasting conditions. Recent studies highlight novel roles for GPR3 receptors in metabolic signaling.
