Worked alongside researchers to understand the underlying mechanisms involved in axonal transport. We wanted to elucidate how alterations in axonal transport contribute to the pathogenesis of Huntington’s and Parkinson’s disease. Executed extensive studies on neuron human cells in order to find JNK3 pathway targets and novel drug delivery methods..

Assisted principle investigator with identifying the role and characterizing protein, LIN-9, involved in cell cycle G1/S gene transcription and its implications in cancer. Through siRNA silencing of LIN-9, we tried to understand its interaction with pocket proteins, p107 & p130, as well as B-Myb, a central regulator of cell cycle progression. Performed.
