Anup Padmanabhan is Assistant Professor of Biology and an Intermediate Fellow of the DBT/Wellcome Trust India Alliance. He did his PhD in Biological Sciences at the National University of Singapore, and was a Research Fellow at the Mechanobiology Institute, Singapore. His lab investigates the dynamics of shape change in cells during physiological processes such as embryo development and microbial infections. He employs various genetic, cell biology tools as well live microscopy to study cytoskeleton regulation underlying these shape changes.
