 and Molecular Biology I\, Medical Faculty\, Heinrich-Heine-University Düss
 eldorf\, Düsseldorf\, Germany\, and Leibniz Research Institute for Environ
 mental Medicine\n\nDate: Friday\, June 5\, 2026\, at 11:05 a.m.\n\nLocatio

 d Campus\n	21111 Lakeshore Road\, Saint-Anne-de-Bellevue\, QC H9X 3V9\n\nDe
 scription\n\nThis lecture will be delivered by Dr. Helmut Sies\, a pioneer
  in redox biology and the scientist who introduced the concept of oxidativ
 e stress.\n\nBuilding on the foundations of stress research first describe
 d by Hans Selye at 91ɬÂþ in 1936\, Dr. Sies will explore the d
 ynamic balance of redox homeostasis in aerobic metabolism. His lecture wil
 l highlight the central role of hydrogen peroxide (Hâ‚‚Oâ‚‚) in cellular regul
 ation\, distinguishing between its essential signaling functions ('oxidati
 ve eustress') and its damaging effects at higher levels ('oxidative distre
 ss').\n\nThis talk will provide insights into emerging challenges in redox
  medicine and the fine-tuning of oxidative processes in health and disease
 .\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nHelmut Sies\, MD\, PhD\, is an internationally r
 ecognized leader in biochemistry and molecular biology. He served as Profe
 ssor and Chairman at the Institute for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology 
 I at Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf and is currently a Research Prof
 essor and Senior Scientist at the Leibniz Research Institute for Environme
 ntal Medicine.\n\nDr. Sies introduced the concept of oxidative stress and 
 made seminal contributions to understanding the role of hydrogen peroxide 
 in biological systems. His work has significantly shaped modern redox biol
 ogy and nutritional biochemistry\, including research on antioxidants such
  as carotenoids\, flavonoids\, and selenium.\n\nWith over 800 scientific p
 ublications\, he is among the most highly cited researchers in the life sc
 iences and has been widely recognized for his outstanding contributions to
  the field.\n
