Asst. Prof. Lynda Bourebaba
Faculty Member - Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences, Wrocław, Poland
Dr. Lynda Bourebaba graduated with her Master's degree in Molecular Pharmacology from Abderahman Mira University - Bejaia, Algeria, Faculty of Natural Sciences and Life in 2012, and completed her Ph.D. in 2017 in the Department of Plant Biotechnology and Ethnobotany of Bejaia University. She further integrated the Department of Experimental Biology, Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences, Wrocław, Poland in 2018 as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow, where she advanced her research associated with the development of metabolic syndrome therapies. Dr Bourebaba is currently an assistant professor at the Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences. As an academic teacher, she provides courses on, among others, cellular and molecular biology, histology, regenerative medicine, and tissue engineering and supervises many young students and young researchers. As a researcher specialized in pharmacology, and cellular and molecular biology, her research work focuses mainly on developing novel therapies integrating regenerative medicine and bioactive components for more than 5 years. These therapies aim at the treatment of endocrine, inflammatory, degenerative and metabolic disorders by targeting the associated molecular alterations affecting mitochondrial metabolism and biogenesis, oxidative balance, apoptosis, endoplasmic reticulum machinery, and cellular metabolism. Being an active young scientist, she achieved the publication of over 40 peer-reviewed interdisciplinary original research and review articles in well-recognized and highly-ranked scientific journals. The main topics covered by the publications she authored or co-authored range from regenerative, molecular and veterinary medicine, endocrinology, cell biology, metabolomics, and therapeutics. She has additionally actively participated in the realization of various research projects financed by either the Polish National Science Centre or other institutions including the National Medicines Institute in Warsaw, the American Morris Animal Foundation, and the UC Davis Center for Companion Animal Health in collaboration with renowned Polish and foreign scientists. Dr Bourebaba’s publications have received over 300 citations so far and her h-index is 11.
