معرفی
Sihem Boudina is a Professor of Nutrition and Integrative Physiology, with adjunct appointments as Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Internal Medicine at the University of Utah. She directs the Metabolic Phenotyping Core Facility, focusing on translational research into cardiometabolic diseases, mitochondrial energetics, and autophagy.
- B.S. from University of Science and Technology, Algeria
- M.S. and Ph.D. from University of Bordeaux 2, France
Her research explores molecular mechanisms driving obesity, cardiometabolic disease, and cardiomyopathy, emphasizing mitochondrial dysfunction and autophagy. Recent work investigates how mitochondrial uncoupling, antioxidant therapies, and metabolic signaling influence disease progression in preclinical models.
Key trends in her publications include obesity-related metabolic adaptations, cardiac insulin resistance, and the role of oxidative stress in cardiovascular and metabolic disorders. Her studies span molecular biology, physiology, and pharmacology, with a focus on therapeutic strategies for cardiometabolic diseases.
She actively contributes to graduate education and research infrastructure through her directorship at the Metabolic Phenotyping Core Facility. The lab's outputs highlight collaborations in mitochondrial biology, diabetes, and adipose tissue research, though no specific scientific awards are noted in the provided text.
