  My thesis Titled, “Role of FAK and Small G-protein Signaling in Vascular Smooth Muscle Spheroid Formation” was submitted towards my Feb2020 graduation. I recently submitted my first author manuscript titled “Machine learning approach reveals heterogeneous responses to FAK and RhoGTPases inhibition on smooth muscle spheroid formation” for preprint (https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.01.30.927616). I am also in the process of submitting a review article titled “Role of Phosphoinositides in cardiovascular diseases”. I also had the opportunity for an oral presentation at the BMES, 2019 for my research project. As a graduate student in the Pathology department at UB, I developed 2D and 3D human and mouse smooth muscle cell and endothelial cell cultures to study vascular disease at the cellular and molecular levels and also explore the mechanobiology aspects of vascular diseases. In addition to my research, I’ve also trained undergraduate and graduate students with their independent research projects through which we are currently writing a research article titled “Differential effects of matrix stiffness on human vascular smooth muscle cell morphology”. I’ve also had hands-on experience working with breast cancer and epithelial cells as a part of other minor projects.
