Regulation of development and differentiation; regulation of programmed cell death and cell division; mechanisms of tumorigenesis

Juwel Chandra Baray

My research is centered on understanding transdifferentiation, transorganogenesis, and the intriguing fields of aging and longevity in the nematode C. elegans. Furthermore, my objective is to bridge the gap between human biology and model organisms by applying these insights to the context of human cells.

I am interested in understanding the mechanisms controlling healthspan and lifespan, including the role of genetic and epigenetic factors, natural and artificial rejuvenation events, and dietary and behavioral interventions. I work with the premier aging model of C. elegans and focus on leveraging large-scale biological data through the use of statistics and bioinformatics.
