"I am delving into Identification of cholesterol-responsive gene"
Ms. Rakhi Panwar
📧rakhipanwar@nii.ac.in
"I work on Investigating the role of osteocalcin in preventing blood-brain barrier damage and neuroinflammation in Neurodegenerative disease"
Ms. Sumnil Bhola

"My study area focuses on Niemann-Pick disease, a lysosomal cholesterol storage disorder. The primary goal of my research is to study role of ER resident proteins (known to make ER-Lysosome MCS) is responsible for the cholesterol egress from lysosomes in the Niemann-Pick disease condition"
Ms. Arundhati
📧arundhatik@nii.ac.in
"My research is focused on investigating cellular senescence and the hypersecretory phenomena associated with it."
Mr. Harsh Aahra
"I investigate the spatial and functional regulation of mitochondrial health and ER–mitochondria communication in neurodegenerative conditions. My work integrates bioenergetics, lipid transport, organelle dynamics, to dissect how inter-organelle signaling influences protein aggregation, metabolic stress in neurodegenerative disease"
Ms. Harini

"My work is in Deciphering the role of an ER-resident proteins in anterograde (ER to golgi) and retrograde trafficking (golgi to ER) of vesicles, its role in ER-phagy, and in protein quality control mechanisms under Physiological and Pathological Conditions"
Ms. Muskan Mittal

"My project goal is to investigate how senescence and neuroinflammation impairs neurogenesis and to identify the vulnerabilities to reverse the senescent phenotype and restore the regenerative capacity of neural progenitor cells"
Ms. Jaishree Yadav
