Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Luísa Camacho is a research biologist at the National Center for Toxicological Research. Her work has focused on evaluating alternative skin barrier models for dermal absorption studies, investigating the temporal dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater, and examining the influence of race and pigmentation on the human skin barrier. Camacho has also studied the effects of cannabis use on patients presenting to emergency departments for psychosis and validated case definitions for psychotic illness. Her research includes investigating the impact of coadministering black cohosh extract and risedronate on bone health in an ovariectomized rat model, and evaluating the cost-benefit of advanced therapy lines for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.

Camacho's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 23, with 57 total publications and 1,830 total citations. She has published on topics including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their methylated derivatives, as well as SARS-CoV-2 genome detection and variants. Key collaborators include Camila Silva, Michelle M. Vanlandingham, Frederick A. Beland, and Alec T. Salminen, all from the National Center for Toxicological Research, with whom she has co-authored three publications each.
