Dr. Aleksandra Niedzwiecki, a member of the board of the Dr. Rath Health Foundation, also serves as CEO and Director of Research at the Dr. Rath Research Institute located in San Jose, California. She received her Ph.D. in biochemistry from the University of Warsaw, Poland.

Her research interests and expertise cover several areas including various aspects of cell metabolism, genetics, cancer, and the molecular mechanisms of aging, among others. Dr. Niedzwiecki conducted her studies at various academic institutions in the United States and other countries and has held research and faculty positions at the Rockefeller University in New York, the University of Toronto (Canada), the University of Warsaw (Poland), and the Linus Pauling Institute in California.

During her scientific career Dr. Niedzwiecki, who worked directly with two Nobel Laureates (Gerald Edelman and Linus Pauling), has been inspired by Dr. Rath’s scientific ideas, which were instrumental in shifting her research focus to the field of micronutrients and cardiovascular disease. She started a research collaboration with Dr. Rath at the Linus Pauling Institute in California and followed him as the Head of Cardiovascular Research at that institution. She joined Dr. Rath’s Cellular Medicine research and development firm shortly after its establishment. Dr. Niedzwiecki has worked with Dr. Rath for over thirty years pursuing research on micronutrients in cardiovascular disease, cancer, infectious diseases, and other aspects of human health.
