Autorenporträt

Bertrand Henri Rihn, MD, DSc, professor of biochemistry and molecular biol-ogy at Lorraine University, France, is a leading expert in the field of particulate toxicology, with research topics including safety toxicology, immunotoxicology, and investigating the transcriptomic changes in macrophages following nanopar-ticle exposure. In addition to his research, Professor Rihn has also worked as a clinical toxicologist, and was awarded the Baratz Award (2004) and the E. Taub Award (2011) from the National Academy of Medicine (France). He also served as the president of the French Society of Toxicology from 2007 to 2009, and was a EUROTOX Registered Toxicologist.
