Biography

Shyam Sundar Nandi, PhD (Postdoctoral fellow at University of Nebraska Medical Center) has experience in the field of heart failure and diabetes. He has expertise in diabetic heart failure and autophagy. His special interest is on microRNAs, autophagy, mitophagy, mitochondrial quality control axis and mitophagic cardiomyopathy in diabetic heart failure. He also has experience on regulation of β-adrenergic signaling, hyperhomocystinemia-H₂S signaling, and pathological remodeling in diabetic heart. Additionally, he has good knowledge in molecular biology, proteomics and imaging techniques both at in vivo and in vitro levels. He has also experienced with evaluation of cardiac dysfunction by using MRI, echocardiography and pressure-volume loop. He has been honored with GOLD MEDAL for standing 1^st position in MS and late Kamala Bala Mallick Award, and Best Student Award for scoring highest marks in MS. He received Best Poster Presentation Award in “International Symposium on Molecular Signaling” in 2013 and “Morris Karmazyn Award” for best poster in translational medicine, in annual meeting of the international academy of cardiovascular sciences: North American section in 2015. He is also actively involved to serve the scientific community by reviewing manuscripts from reputed peer-reviewed journals in cell biology and cardiovascular disease “AJP- Heart and Circulatory Physiology”, “International Journal of Diabetes and Clinical Research”, “Cell Communication and Signaling”, “Nature Scientific Report”, “Theranostics”, “Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry”, “Biological Trace element Research”.
