Sindhu K J
Sindhu K J joined our lab in Dec 2016 as a Research Scholar (Ph.D.). She is trying to identify newer strategies to overcome radioresistance in cervical cancer most often seen in clinics. Her work tries to narrow down one potent miRNA that can target several molecules contributing to this phenomenon thereby providing a solution to the above said problem. She finished her post-graduation from NIT, Allahabad, India and Bachelor’s from Anna University, Chennai, India.
