Ioannis S. Pateras

I hold the position of Assistant Professor in the Medical School of National and Kapodistrian University of Athens since October 2017. My background is: (1) Medicine (MD), (2) Nutrition and Dietetics (Bsc), (3) Molecular Pathology (PhD), (4) Pathology (Medical Specialty). My main research interests fall into the following categories: (1) inflammatory response during chronic inflammatory diseases and cancer, (2) cell cycle and cancer, (3) metabolism and cancer. Given my expertise on molecular pathology I am very much interested in translating basic research to clinical practice.  Within this frame,  in the Special issue in Frontiers that I am guest editor along with the co-editors we are looking forward to bring together basic and clinical oriented researchers that focus on the particular topic.
