Professor Valerie Schini-Kerth

INSERM, University of Strasbourg, CRBS, Strasbourg (France)

Member of:

European Society of Cardiology

Valérie Schini-Kerth received her PhD in 1988 at the University Louis Pasteur of Strasbourg, France. She is Professor of Pharmacology at the Faculty of Pharmacy of Strasbourg University since 2000. Since January 2024, she is the director of the Translational Cardiovascular Medicine research department. Her major interest is focusing on the pivotal role of the endothelium in the control of vascular homeostasis in health and disease. In particular, she is studying the mechanisms contributing to the induction of endothelial dysfunction related to ageing and major cardiovascular risk factors including hypertension and diabetes. Her recent interest is focusing on the role of premature endothelial senescence in the initiation of endothelial dysfunction and its pharmacological inhibition by drugs and natural products including berry-derived products. She is currently the Chair of the Natural Products Section of the International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology (IUPHAR).
