Prior to this, under the mentorship of Dr. Moo-Yeal Lee at the University of North Texas, I specialized in developing multicellular vascular HLOs using innovative developmental biology principles. Additionally, I honed novel protocols for generating endodermal organoids, specifically targeting the liver and intestine, by manipulating progenitor cells.
My doctoral research, conducted with Dr. Dwaiyapan Sen at Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT) in India, centered around personalized stem cell therapy for myocardial tissue regeneration. I endeavored to enhance the therapeutic potential of human adult stem cells through a receptor-mediated signaling activation strategy.
My academic journey commenced with a Master’s and bachelor’s degree in biotechnology from SVIMS University and SV University, respectively, located in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh, India. During my Master’s program, I did research with Dr. PVGK Sarma on differentiating hematopoietic stem cells into alveolar cell types at air-liquid interfaces, further exploring the nuances of stem cell differentiation
