Episode Synopsis

Dr. Maria Kristina Parr is a Professor in Pharmaceutical Chemistry at Freie Universität Berlin. In this interview, she discusses her research that has focused on understanding the metabolism of steroids and other compounds and improving our ability to detect these substances and their metabolites for anti-doping and other purposes. We covered the results from several of her latest papers, including work examining food sources of ecdysterone, metabolism of topically administered steroids in skin cells, metabolism of endogenous versus exogenous steroids, and more.
