Research associate at Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth
Biography
Dr Rajarshi Chakrabarti is a research associate at Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth, working as a postdoctoral scientist in the lab of Professor Henry Higgs. Dr Chakrabarti completed his BS in Zoology and MS in Biophysics & Molecular Biology from University of Calcutta. Dr. Chakrabarti then finished his PhD in biochemistry in 2015, where he studied spatio-temporal regulation and function of lipid kinases and in the nucleus.
In 2015, Dr. Chakrabarti joined Professor Higgs lab as a postdoctoral scientist where became interested in mechanisms of mitochondrial dynamics, more specifically in analysing how actin filaments regulate mitochondria dynamics. For the last four years at Dartmouth, Dr. Chakrabarti has made valuable contributions in the field of mitochondria dynamics and has worked to uncover the cellular and molecular mechanisms of actin regulated mitochondrial dynamics. The results of his work were published in 10 papers in high impact journals, were Dr Rajarshi Chakrabarti has been co-author, main author and even corresponding author.
