Name: Shobha Vasudevan

Position: Assistant Professor

Research Description:

My research program aims to investigate the mechanisms of gene expression control of cancer associated genes by microRNAs and RNA binding protein complexes (RNPs), their regulation and interconnections with AU-rich 3'UTR elements in response to quiescent and hypoxic conditions in germ cells/oocytes and tumors. These studies should provide a greater understanding of the versatile roles of regulatory non-coding RNAs in developmental programs and in the pathogenesis of cancers and lead to novel approaches in small RNA-based therapeutic applications.
