Linda Sasset

Linda has extensive experience in studying molecular and cellular processes, particularly in the context of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. Her postdoctoral fellowship at Weill Cornell Medical College focused on the regulation and role of sphingolipids in health and disease. Dr. Sasset’s research has led to the discovery of Nogo-A as a negative regulator of SPT activity, which helps preserve beneficial autophagy and metabolic gene expression. Her work has been instrumental in understanding the role of sphingolipids in cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, contributing to the development of novel therapeutic strategies.
