Checkpoint Dysfunction in Cancer Cell Biology
Interns will investigate how mutations in checkpoint genes (p53, RB, CHK2) contribute to uncontrolled cell proliferation and cancer development. Research will involve analyzing checkpoint defects in cancer cell lines and exploring potential therapeutic targets for cell cycle-based cancer treatments.

DNA Methylation Pattern Analysis
Interns will learn to identify and analyze DNA methylation patterns across different genomic regions using bisulfite sequencing data and bioinformatics tools. They will work on characterizing how methylation changes affect gene expression in various cell types and disease states.
Epigenetics and Gene Regulation ResearchView internship →
Histone Modification Mapping
Interns will conduct ChIP-seq experiments and data analysis to map histone modifications across the genome and correlate them with transcriptional activity. They will learn to interpret histone mark patterns to understand chromatin structure and gene regulation mechanisms.
Epigenetics and Gene Regulation ResearchView internship →
Stress Response Gene Expression Analysis
Interns will investigate how plants respond to abiotic stresses (drought, salinity, heat) by analyzing gene expression patterns using qRT-PCR and RNA-sequencing techniques. This includes identifying candidate genes for stress tolerance and validating their functional roles.
