Dr. Soumya Mal
Soumya is a postdoctoral fellow at IISER Mohali. He completed his PhD at the Bose Institute, Kolkata, where he investigated the roles of sirtuins and mitochondrial dynamics in regulating the innate immune response during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in macrophages. His current research interests focus on the role of epigenetic mechanisms and intricacies of glucose metabolism in diabetic vascular complications. Outside academia, he enjoys reading novels, travelling, listening to music and cooking.
Ankita Priydarshini
Ankita Priydarshini
Ankita is pursuing her Ph.D with our group. She did her bachelor's degree in Botany from Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology (OUAT), Bhubaneswar. She completed her Masters in Biotechnology from Siksha O Anusandhan University, Bhubaneswar. She is studying the role of long noncoding RNAs in diabetic vascular complications. Her hobbies are listening to music and travelling.
Soumyodeep Das
Soumyodeep Das
Soumyodeep is a doctoral candidate with the CSIR-UGC Junior Research Fellowship. He earned his BS-MS dual degree from IISER Kolkata. He's focused on investigating how emerging epigenetic factors like lncRNAs are influenced by environmental exposure, lifestyle, and past experiences, potentially impacting gene expression and contributing to chronic diseases. He aspires to delve into the roles of lncRNAs in inflammatory disease phenotypes to advance novel therapeutic approaches. He also sees the potential for lncRNAs to serve as vital biomarkers in the onset and progression of neurological disorders and thus crucial for disease management. Apart from academics, he unwinds with novels, and nurtures a passion for football, anime, and traveling.

She has completed her Bachelor's degree in Zoology from Gurudas College, Calcutta University and Master's degree in Life Sciences from National Institute of Technology, Durgapur. She is interested in Epigenetic Regulation of Gene Expression and its Inheritance. Her other interests include learning new things, cooking, reading novels, binge watching, listening to music etc.
Koshika
Koshika
Koshika is pursuing her PhD at IISER Mohali, supported by CSIR-UGC Junior Research Fellowship (JRF). She completed her bachelor’s in Life Sciences from Ramjas College, University of Delhi, and master’s in Life Sciences from the School of Life Sciences, Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU). Her research interests focus on the mechanisms of epigenetic gene regulation, particularly how enhancers and super-enhancers orchestrate transcriptional programs in physiological and disease contexts. Other than academics, she enjoys reading novels, listening to music, watching movies and web series.
