معرفی
Sridhar Rao, MD, PhD, is an Associate Professor in Pediatrics (Hematology/Oncology/Transplantation) and Cell Biology, Neurobiology & Anatomy at the Medical College of Wisconsin. He serves as Associate Director of the Medical Scientist Training Program and Associate Investigator at the Versiti Blood Research Institute. His research focuses on chromatin biology, genetic regulation of blood pressure, cancer biology, and cellular plasticity. Key areas include investigating cohesin mutations in leukemia, chromatin interactions in vascular systems, and epigenetic mechanisms in tumor adaptation.
Notable publications from 2024-2025 explore topics such as noncoding RNA haplotype functions, renal segment chromatin states related to blood pressure, and EMT-like signatures in myeloid sarcoma. His work integrates molecular genetics, epigenetics, and systems biology approaches. Rao collaborates widely, with publications spanning Cell Reports, Hypertension, and Blood Neoplasia journals.
He holds academic leadership roles in medical training programs and translational research initiatives. His lab's research has implications for understanding disease mechanisms in cancers and cardiovascular disorders.
