Dr Małgorzata Iciek is an Assistant Professor at the Chair of Medical Biochemistry, Jagiellonian University Medical College. She graduated in chemistry with a specialization in biological chemistry from the Faculty of Chemistry, Jagiellonian University. In 2007, she received the title of  doctor of pharmaceutical sciences from the Faculty of Pharmacy, Jagiellonian University, Medical College. The PhD thesis was entitled: "Biological significance of the modulation of thiol activity by sulfane sulfur and S-thiolation reactions". In 2019, she obtained a habilitation degree. The scientific areas of interest of Malgorzata Iciek include the metabolism of thiol compounds and the generation of reactive sulfur species. Among them, the most interesting are compounds containing highly reactive sulfane sulfur (persulfides and polysulfides). They have been recently recognized as signaling molecules which play an important role in physiological and pathological conditions. Małgorzata Iciek is a member of the Polish Biochemical Society. She received the Team Award of the Minister of National Education and Sports and Team Award of the Minister of Health. She was also recognised by the Dean of JU MC for scientific achievements.
