Divya Reddy

Dr. Divya Reddy is an Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology at UT Southwestern. She holds a Ph.D. in Life Sciences from the Tata Memorial Centre (ACTREC) Homi Bhabha National Institute, an M.S. in Biotechnology from Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, and a B.S. in Biotechnology from Osmania University. Prior to her current role, she conducted postdoctoral research at the Stowers Institute for Medical Research and served as an Assistant Instructor at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dr. W. Lee Kraus’s and Dr. Deepak Nijhawan’s labs.

Her research focuses on epigenetic mechanisms, particularly histone modifications and their roles in cancer development and therapy. Key areas include SWI/SNF complexes, DNA methylation, histone variants like H3.3 and H2A, and their implications in diseases such as hepatocellular carcinoma. Her work integrates molecular biology, biochemistry, and bioinformatics to understand chromatin dynamics and transcriptional regulation.

Dr. Reddy’s publications highlight trends in studying epigenetic regulators (e.g., SETD2, ARID1B), cancer biomarkers, and therapeutic targets. She has contributed to databases like HISTome2 for histone-related research. Despite no listed awards or grants here, her academic trajectory reflects strong research commitments in oncology and epigenetics.

Her career path demonstrates expertise in lab environments, with experience spanning prestigious institutions. While no advisees are noted, her postdoctoral and instructor roles suggest active participation in mentoring and collaborative research.
