Information

Siska Croubels is senior full professor and director of the Laboratory of Pharmacology and Toxicology at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Ghent University, Belgium. Prof. Croubels is responsible lecturer for the courses General Pharmacology and Toxicology. Her research focuses on in vivo ADME and residues of (myco)toxins and drugs in several animal species, including wildlife and environmental exposure. Her research group develops in vivo models for efficacy testing of post-harvest mycotoxin mitigation strategies, species-specific biomarkers for mycotoxin exposure in animals and generates insights on the impact of mycotoxins on gut health, and on their interactions with drugs and the pathogenesis of major pathogens in pigs and poultry. She has expertise in the analysis of small molecules in biological, food, feed and environmental matrices, using state-of-the-art UHPLC-MS/MS instruments. Her group is member of the MYTOX and MYTOX-SOUTH expertise centers (www.mytox.be; www.mytoxsouth.org), dealing with the effects of mycotoxins on human and animal health in the North and South.
