Susanta Behura

Dr. Susanta Behura is an Assistant Professor in the Division of Animal Sciences at the University of Missouri's College of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources. His research integrates computational approaches with multi-omics data to investigate fundamental questions in animal genetics, genomics, and reproductive biology.

Research Focus:

• Computational analysis of fetal brain development pathways
• Epigenetic regulation of brain-placental axis
• Single-cell transcriptomics of developmental processes

His recent publications utilize transcriptomic, epigenetic, and metabolomic approaches to study sex-biased metabolic regulation and placental adaptation in mammalian development.

Dr. Behura teaches Functional Genomics of Mammals and mentors graduate students in bioinformatics approaches for biological discovery.
