Alexandros TsouprasAlexandros Tsoupras has studied (BSc, MSc, PhD) and worked as a chemist and biochemist since 2002 in several academic and research institutions in Greece, the United States, and Ireland (i.e., the University of Athens, the Technological Educational Istitute of Athens, the Directorate of the Environment of the Region of Attica, Albany Medical College, the University of Limerick, etc.). He has participated in research regarding the implication of inflammation on several chronic disorders, such as CVD, cancer, renal disorders, chronic infections, etc. His main interests concern not only the beneficial pleiotropic effects and side effects of several drugs, such as statins, antibiotics, antiretrovirals, etc., but also the beneficial effects of nutraceuticals, food supplements, and bioactive microconstituents of natural origin, such as those derived from healthy foods, microorganisms of biotechnological interest, and several medicinal plants, on inflammatory disorders. Alexandros' beliefs lie on appropriately using and improvising the existing naturally derived "weapons" of a healthy dietary pattern and lifestyle toward the prevention of chronic disorders to improve our quality of life. His motto is "As long as we have the opportunity, let us do our best for the good of all in the short time given to us". Twitter Handle: @bioflips Read More Read Less
