Anshu Kumari, PhD

Academic Title:

Post Doc Fellow

Primary Appointment:

Physiology

Education and Training

  • Indian Institute (II) of Technology Indore, PhD, Biosciences and Biomedical Engineering
  • II of Technology Indore, B. Tech, Biosciences and Biomedical Engineering

Biosketch

Dr. Kumari's doctoral research focused on the fabrication of the biocompatible nanocarrier for Near-Infrared and Multiphoton Bioimaging. In the Garg Lab, she is learning novel aspects of mitochondrial calcium signaling, and how it is affected in a diseased state. Outside of the lab, she enjoys cooking, traveling, and exploring new places.
