Kusumika Saha, PhD
I did my PhD at the Medical University of Vienna on the pharmacology of synthetic psychoactive compounds and their mechanism of action at the cellular level. After that, I did my postdoc at Institut Cochin in Paris where I studied the cellular response to stress mediated by misfolded proteins. I joined Dr Macrae’s lab in May 2021 and my research project focuses on cell signaling pathways that respond to adverse cellular microenvironment.
