Über mich
My current work investigates the role of p38MAPK (MAPK14) dependent stromal functions in the pathogenesis of Non-small cell lung cancer. Additionally, I also have a background in cancer epigenetics. My career interest lies on working at cutting-edge of cancer research and acquire immense exposure needed to succeed in the field of Oncology. Cognizant of the extensive emphasis on ‘translational research’, my goal is to seek in-depth knowledge and get aligned in this very area. My experience, skill-set and passion for cancer research juxtaposed with my desire to accomplish something significant defines me as an enthusiastic and highly motivated scientist.
