Marica Bakovic is a Professor in the Department of Human Health Sciences at the University of Guelph. Her research focuses on the regulation of genes involved in choline transport, phospholipid metabolism, and nutrient transporter kinetics, emphasizing molecular cell biology and the effect of nutrients on protein synthesis and gene expression. She has extensively studied nutritional genomics, particularly concerning risk factors associated with cardiovascular diseases and insulin resistance. She obtained her B.Sc. and M.Sc. from Belgrade and her Ph.D. from Alberta. Dr. Bakovic's prominent publications include investigations into choline transporter deficiencies and their effects on neurodegeneration, as well as the role of phosphoethanolamine cytidylyltransferase in lipid metabolism. Her work has contributed significantly to understanding the metabolic processes and health implications of lipids and nutrients.
Department of Clinical Studies. Offers MSc by thesis (2 years) and MSc by coursework (1 year).
