معرفی
Rina Pokhrel is a Research Fellow in Drug Discovery Biology at Monash University, actively engaged in cutting-edge research on G protein-coupled receptors, chemokine signaling, and therapeutic protein engineering. Her work bridges molecular pharmacology and structural biology to develop novel treatments for inflammatory diseases.
Her research focuses on understanding and manipulating GPCR signaling pathways and engineering tick-derived evasins to inhibit inflammatory chemokines. These efforts contribute to the development of new anti-inflammatory therapeutics and align with global health goals, particularly UN Sustainable Development Goal 3 (Good Health and Well-being).
The recent publication trend shows a consistent focus on structural and functional studies of receptor systems, with high-impact outputs in journals such as Nature Communications and PNAS. Her work emphasizes both small molecule drug discovery and biological therapeutics, demonstrating a multidisciplinary approach to modern pharmacology.
Rina Pokhrel collaborates with leading researchers including Prof. Martin J. Stone and Dr. Simon R. Foster. While no formal advising or grant information is available, her active publication record suggests strong involvement in collaborative research projects and scientific innovation.
