Sushant Bangru

Sushant Bangru is a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Morgridge Institute for Research, specializing in Regenerative Biology. His research focuses on understanding the transcriptional and cell signaling mechanisms that regulate tissue regeneration in vertebrates, particularly using zebrafish as a model organism.

• Education: Ph.D. in Biochemistry (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, 2021)
• B.Sc. in Biological Sciences (Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, 2015)

Research Interests: Dr. Bangru employs cutting-edge techniques in live imaging, genomics, and cell biology to quantitatively investigate how vertebrate tissues regenerate. His work bridges biochemical pathways with dynamic cellular behaviors during regeneration, emphasizing molecular regulation and signaling networks in zebrafish models.
