Biography

Lucija Peterlin Mašič is an Associate Professor of Medicinal Chemistry and an Assistant Professor of Toxicological Chemistry. She has expertise in Medicinal Chemistry and Toxicology. She has studied the influence of metabolism on endocrine activities of hormone-disrupting chemicals such as analogs of bisphenol A and novel brominated flame retardants with different in vitro assays. Her research interests are also in vitro studies of drug metabolism, testing compounds acting on nuclear receptors (estrogen,  thyroid,  androgen,  glucocorticoid,  PXR,  FXR  and  PPARs), metabolism of xenobiotics and activity studies of their metabolites, bimolecular mechanism studies of toxicity, structure and ligand-based drug design, etc. Lucija Peterlin Mašič is an Associate Professor of Medicinal Chemistry and an Assistant Professor of Toxicological Chemistry.
