Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Alec T. Salminen's research focuses on the development and evaluation of in vitro models for assessing dermal absorption and the mechanisms underlying barrier responses in biological systems. His work has investigated the use of alternative skin models, such as artificial membranes, and excised human skin for in vitro testing, considering factors like race and pigmentation that influence skin barrier function. Salminen has also studied the molecular mechanisms by which endothelial cells respond to specific signaling molecules, contributing to an understanding of cellular responses in various physiological contexts. Additionally, his research has explored the application of functionalized silicon membranes for the rapid and specific detection of biological particles, such as viral particles, using a fouling-based sensor approach.

Salminen has published 19 papers with 482 citations and an h-index of 11. He has collaborated with several researchers at the National Center for Toxicological Research, including Luísa Camacho, Robert P. Felton, Frederick A. Beland, and Nicole Kleinstreuer.
