Murali Dharan Bashyam
Head, Lab of Molecular Oncology
Head, National Genomics and Transcriptomics Facility
M. Biotechnology from AIIMS, New Delhi.
Ph. D. Biochemistry from University of Delhi South Campus.
Post-Doctoral Training at the National Institute of Immunology, New Delhi. |
 Dr. Bashyam, carried out Ph. D. research in the laboratory of Prof. Anil K. Tyagi, Dept. of Biochemistry, Univ. of Delhi South Campus, on the cloning and characterization of promoter sequences from mycobacteria. This analysis has helped to understand the genetic basis for similarities and differences between the transcriptional machineries of Mycobacteria, Streptomyces and E. coli. His postdoctoral work was in the Eukaryotic Gene Expression Laboratory of Dr. S. E. Hasnain at the National Institute of Immunology, New Delhi and was based on the baculovirus gene expression system and included the characterization of both basal and hyperactivated transcription from the polyhedrin gene promoter. He has completed a one and a half year sabbatical at the Stanford University School of Medicine. He is a member of The National Academy of Sciences, Allahabad. |
His Current Research Interests includes:
His main research interest is to identify important cancer genes by using a combination of array-based CGH and gene expression microarrays. This work will help to identify new drug targets to combat the spread of aggressive tumors.
His other interest is to study prevalent genetic disorders in India in collaboration with the Diagnostics Division at CDFD. |
