Loredan S. Niculescu is a biophysicist and molecular biology expert (Ph.D. from 2008), working in in the Lipidomics Department of the Institute of Cellular Biology and Pathology “Nicolae Simionescu”, Bucharest, in the field of lipid metabolism. He is focused on the gene regulation of lipid metabolism mediated by non-coding RNAs, such as microRNAs and long-noncoding RNA. His research work is focused on the non-coding RNA-related epigenetic alterations in dyslipidemia, multiple vascular atherosclerosis and diabetes, and in vivo modulation of microRNAs. He has experience in research to identify transcriptome-related biomarkers in cardiovascular diseases, biostatistics and bioinformatics. He is a member of Romanian Society for Cell Biology, European Atherosclerosis Society and European Lipoprotein Club.
