Riya Keshri

As a postdoctoral fellow, Riya Keshri will be developing treatment for various muscle atrophies including Sarcopenia using synthetic AI-designed proteins. Dr. Keshri will be identifying synthetic designed binders against RTKs/RSTKs […] Read More

Jasmine Villegas

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a life-limiting genetic disease caused by a mutation of CFTR, eventually leading to respiratory failure. With an ISCRM fellowship award, Jasime Villegas aims to create a CRISPR-Cas9 […] Read More

Scott Schactler

As an ISCRM Fellow, Scott Schactler is characterizing the microenvironment of the lncRNA Xist during X-chromosome inactivation using photocatalyst-powered super-resolution proximity-labeling tools. Using Oligonucleotide-directed proximity-interactome MAPing (O-MAP) in a cell […] Read More

Manith Atapattu

With ISCRM Fellowship funding, Manith will investigate the role of a microRNA called miR9-2, an important genetic regulator in brain development. Using a mouse model the Cherry Lab has generated, […] Read More

Kathryn (Kat) Powers

Unlike non-mammalian vertebrates, hair cell damage in the mature mammalian cochlea leads to permanent hearing loss. There is great need for the discovery of new factors that promote hair cell […] Read More

Brad Hansen

In his fellowship project, Brad will investigate methods to generate spermatogonial cells (the base cell of spermatogenesis) from induced pluripotent stem cells using directed stem cell differentiation alongside a complex […] Read More

Jenny Nathans

With support from an ISCRM Fellowship, Jenny Nathans aims to further develop and deploy molecular recording for the precise reconstruction of signaling history in development. She will first establish this […] Read More
