Talha Bin Emran

PeerJ Author & Reviewer

Summary

Dr. Emran is a postdoctoral research associate at Brown University, USA. Dr. Emran has completed his BSc and MS with a Biochemistry & Molecular Biology major from the University of Chittagong, Bangladesh. Dr. Emran has completed his doctoral course at the graduate school of Medical Sciences at Kanazawa University, Japan. In the postdoctoral program, Dr. Emran focuses on the mechanisms of base excision repair, PARP, and NAD+ metabolism in human cells and the convergent roles of these enzymes and pathways in response to environmental genotoxins and chemotherapy. This project will use genetic tools (CRISPR) and next-gen sequencing to develop a novel barcoding approach to investigate the role of 50 DNA repair, apoptosis, and stress signaling genes in response to genotoxins and chemotherapy.
