DZG Lunchtime Career Talks: Turning Knowledge into Solutions: Working in Translational Research

Bilal Sheikh heads the Vascular Epigenetics group at the Helmholtz Institute for Metabolic, Obesity and Vascular Research (HI-MAG), an institute of Helmholtz Munich. He is a molecular biologist, with extensive expertise in metabolism, epigenetics and vascular biology. His current research leverages his expertise in these areas to address how blood vessels adapt to injury and metabolic stress. Given the presence of vascular defects in virtually all major diseases, he aims to identify key molecular mechanisms that improve vascular function and mitigate the development of severe diseases such as dementia.
