ASHBi Seminar (Dr. Rahul Sinha)

We will have ASHBi Seminar with Dr. Rahul Sinha from Stanford University as a lecturer.

Dr. Rahul Sinha was trained as a molecular biologist and a biochemist with specialization in mammalian pre-mRNA splicing during PhD training at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, NY, USA. Later joined Irv Weissman’s lab as a post-doc where received training in cancer immunology and stem cell biology with specialization in hematopoietic stem cell and later neural stem cell biology. His long-term goal and research interests is Aberrant neuropoiesis and hematopoiesis. Having the normal functional and transcriptomic profile of stem and progenitor cells within the developing brain and immune compartments has better equipped me to begin elucidating the potential molecular and cellular mechanisms that play a role in clonal evolution of glioma initiating cells—which develop and expand despite the innate immune system (microglia) and later persist despite the onslaught from the peripheral immune system once the blood brain barrier is ruptured.

If you have any interests in the topic, you are welcome to attend this seminar.
