Sylvie BIDAULT-DUCREUX

I am assistant professor at the University Claude Bernard Lyon 1 and a member of the CarMeN lab, a biomedical research laboratory in the fields of metabolic diseases, obesity, type 2 diabetes and their cardiovascular complications (myocardial infarction, stroke), kidney failure and dyslipidemia, in Lyon (France). I received my PhD in biochemistry from the University of Basel (Switzerland); my thesis was centered on the functional effects of Ryanodine Receptors type 1 mutations in some muscle disorders and realized in the group of Susan Treves. I have been a postdoctoral fellow in the University of Fribourg (Switzerland) with Prof. Beat Schwaller and then a member of the CGPhiMC in Lyon (France), in the team of Prof. Bruno Allard and Vincent Jacquemond.
My research topics focus on calcium homeostasis in cardiac and skeletal muscles. In parallel, I am lecturer in Animal Physiology at the University Claude Bernard Lyon 1. I am currently a member of the team of Prof. Ovize and of the research institute IHU OPeRa (organ protection & replacement).
