Interview with Sabrine Bilel
In this interview, Dr Sabrine Bilel from the University of Ferrara (Italy) highlights scientific and public health challenges associated with the rise of novel synthetic opioids (NSOs).
We interviewed researchers at the forefront of various research areas. In this interview series we chat with researchers about topics such as the current state and future of their respective field and what its like starting a lab.

In this interview, Dr Sabrine Bilel from the University of Ferrara (Italy) highlights scientific and public health challenges associated with the rise of novel synthetic opioids (NSOs).

In this interview, Dr. LE JAN highlights how combining 𝘪𝘯 𝘷𝘪𝘷𝘰 disease models with 𝘦𝘹 𝘷𝘪𝘷𝘰 vascular functional studies advances therapeutic strategies, and why a deep understanding of endothelial mechanisms—supported by reproducible tools such as isolated vessel preparations with emkaBATH systems—is invaluable for meaningful preclinical research.

Dr. Agnieszka Olejnik works at the Wroclaw Medical University, in Poland. She studies cardiovascular diseases with a specific focus on experimental cardiology, heart ischemia-reperfusion injury, myocardial infarction and the protective role of Klotho protein.

Dr. Nakamura is Director of Preclinical Research at the UW Medicine Heart Regeneration Program. This translational research focuses on pluripotent stem cell-based cardiac remuscularization therapies using various preclinical models to optimize the efficacy, safety, engraftment, and maturation of cardiomyocyte transplantation through novel genetic, metabolic, immunomodulatory, antiarrhythmic and delivery strategies.

Brent Barre is a research associate with Lovelace Biomedical Research Institute where he currently works with multiple SARS-CoV2 virus studies, in addition to other infectious diseases as well as chemical agents.
We are pleased to share an interview with Brent, who kindly gave us some of his valuable time to share his thoughts about his current research.

Dr. Poulsen was an incredible researcher, collaborator and friend to all of us at emka. He worked in the Neurosurgery Department, in the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at the University at Buffalo. His research focus was the post-traumatic epilepsy and potential induced seizures.
Dr. Poulsen shared his thoughts about his work during an interview in 2020.

Kimberly Londer works at the BioMET Center, in the University of Maryland. She is multi-focal and works with the orthopedic department and as a cardiac research assistant. She is using ecgTUNNEL to capture ECG on young mice, without anesthesia.
We are pleased to share an interview with Kimberly, who kindly shared her thoughts about her research with us.

Dr. Alex Carll works in the department of Physiology, at the University of Louisville, KY, USA. He studies the biological mechanisms by which air pollutants weaken the heart, impair cardiac conduction, and compromise hemodynamics, and whether such effects occur through the autonomic nervous system. He uses ecgAUTO software to analyze ECG, blood pressure, and left ventricular pressure in rodents.
