eXPLoring the Role of Extracellular vesicles in Glioblastoma progression
As per my topic, my work is to majorly figure out the role of Extracellular vesicles (EV) in one of the most notorious brain cancers i.e. Glioblastoma wherein I'm mostly aiming to figure out the cellular communication through the EVs resulting in progression of major cancer hallmarks such as drug resistance & EMT.
A cursory Google search and I find that EVs were nothing but tiny membrane-bound vesicles packed with tons of bioactive cargo that, despite their obscurity, created ripples across various fields of biology subsequently piquing my interest in zeroing in on how these fairly uncomplicated, previously ignored cellular structures were now being actively sought after in prominent research studies.
Publications
Every academic has this section on their website, but I'm also going to include links to my sci comm articles and blogs on social issues, general ideas and some good stories for anyone to draw inspiration from in case they too wanted a side quest in life to contribute a splash of something meaningful in this great big void of the world wide web.
