Dr. Li Li is an assistant professor at the University of Alabama School of Medicine in the U.S.A. Her research focuses on insulin resistance, pre-diabetes and obesity in individuals with major depressive disorder and child abuse, and more generally, individuals with comorbid mental illness and metabolic syndrome. She currently holds a K23 career development award from the National Institute Health to support her research. Her other ongoing projects include investigating the relationship between inflammation and child abuse in individuals with depression, and using exercise as an interventional approach to manage depression and metabolic syndrome. In addition to her practice and research, Dr. Li also directs the Evidence-based medicine and Mechanisms in Psychiatry curriculum, and administers the research programs for residents.

Biochemistry

Juan C. Calderón is a Medical Doctor, PhD in Physiology, devoted to understand different functions of skeletal muscle. One nice function of muscle is being an endocrine organ, by means of the production of myokines. Our groups (www.udea.edu.co/physis) are now trying to understand if musclin has a role in the pathophysiology of some metabolic diseases such as metabolic syndrome. Calderón´s work has also been related to excitation-contraction coupling, calcium signaling and muscle fatigue.

Kriz-Ann R. Hernandez, MD completed her Doctor of Medicine degree from University of Santo Tomas, Faculty of Medicine and Surgery last 2012 and has completed her 3-year residency training in Internal Medicine at Jose R. Reyes Memorial Medical Center in Manila, Philippines.

Medicine and Surgery

Dr. S. Priyanga is currently working as Assistant Professor at the department of biochemistry, Karpagam University, Coimbatore, India. She holds a Ph.D degree in biochemistry. She has special interest in the area of natural product research and diabetes. The main objective of this study is focused on delineating the antidiabetic effects of Macrotyloma uniflorum in STZ rats in vivo. In addition in silico studies were performed to identify bioactive principles with good binding affinity to adiponectin. In vitro studies were done using 3T3-adipocytes to corroborate the findings of in silico analyses. The three pronged approach identified potential anti-diabetic principles from Macrotyloma Uniflorum

Biochemistry and Bioinformatics

As a biochemist specialized in Neurochemistry, she ascertained the effects of psychotropic drugs on catecholamines in brains of inbred mouse strains and established that behaviour and drug responses have a genetic basis. As Neuroendocrinologist, she established in vitro and in vivo animal models (rodent and primate) and focussed studies on two aspects: 1) Feedback regulation of reproductive hormones 2) Regulation of spermatogenesis, at a molecular level, by hypophyseal and gonadal, protein and steroid sex hormones. She retired as Head of Neuroendocrinology Department, National Institute for Research in Reproductive Health, J.M Street, Parel, Mumbai, India.
