Summary
I am currently a third-year PhD candidate in Pathology at the University of Galway, supported by a Chinese Scholarship Council award. My supervisor, Dr. Sanjeev Gupta, specializes in exploring the mechanisms by which ER stress contributes to drug resistance in breast cancer cells, and he has made significant contributions to this field and published high-impact papers. Under his supervision, my research focuses on two lncRNAs (NBR2 and TYMSOS) in breast cancer cells, investigating how these lncRNAs are regulated by ER stress and their impact on breast cancer cell function.
