Philippe Boucher is professor of Physiology at University of Strasbourg. After a Ph.D. at the University of Lyon, France and a postdoctoral fellowship at University of Texas, Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas he became an assistant professor of Physiology at University of Strasbourg before moving on a full professor position. His lab aims to understand cell signalling networks and, in more specific terms, how LRP1 and its partners impact on growth-promoting and differentiation signals that protect against disorders such as atherosclerosis, vascular calcification and arthrosis. He has published more than 25 papers in reputed journals. His work has identified several fundamental molecular mechanisms by which these genes protect against atherosclerosis, vascular calcification, and promote cartilage regeneration.
