Speaker Bio: Dipanjan Chowdhury Lab investigates how human cells sense and repair DNA damage. Loss of genome integrity due to DNA damage has long been established as a critical contributor to cancer and tumorigenesis. Their work therefore focuses on how cells maintain genome integrity. Through genetic, biochemical, and proteomic approaches, as well as collaboration with structural biologists, computational biologists and mouse geneticists, they aim to achieve better understanding in cancer etiology and the development of effective cancer diagnoses and therapies.
