Mukesh Kumar Lalwani
PhD
Postdoctoral Researcher
Mukesh Kumar Lalwani joined Prof Roger Patient and Dr Helle F Jørgensen group as a postdoctoral researcher of Oxbridge, BHF Centre of Regenerative Medicine. He is based in Prof Roger Patient lab at Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine, University of Oxford. His current research focus is to understand heart regeneration mechanisms, specifically pathways influencing cardiac progenitor proliferation potential in zebrafish model.
He graduated in 2003 with a BSc in Biochemistry from Government Model Science College Jabalpur, India and in 2005 completed MSc in Biotechnology from Department of Biological Sciences of Rani Durgavati University, Jabalpur, India. He worked as a Research Fellow in CSIR-Institute of Genomics and Integrative Biology, Delhi, India on functional genomics of non-coding RNA for two years. He started his PhD in 2009 with Dr Sridhar Sivasubbu at CSIR-Institute of Genomics and Integrative Biology, Delhi, India. His doctoral study was focused on understanding the role of microRNAs, a class of non-coding RNAs, in regulation of blood cells and blood vessel development using zebrafish model.
