Tanmoy Mondal

Tanmoy Mondal is a Postdoctoral Researcher and Adjunct Professor in the Department of Biology at Howard University's College of Arts & Sciences. He holds a PhD from Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology, India, and has over 10 years of laboratory experience. His research focuses on chronic metabolic diseases, health disparities in African American populations, and radiation biology. He has received federal awards for his PhD research and currently leads two NIH-funded projects: one from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and another from the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD).

Dr. Mondal's expertise includes transcriptomic analysis, biomarker development, and radiation-induced DNA damage studies. He has authored over 25 peer-reviewed articles and presented at 30+ conferences. His work spans molecular biology techniques such as microarray analysis, comet assay, and FACS, alongside software tools like Ingenuity Pathway Analysis and ImageJ. He also contributed to a patented herbal composition for radiation protection.

Key research themes include Alzheimer's disease pathobiology linked to metabolic dysfunction, genetic variants in neurodevelopmental disorders, and the impact of environmental exposures on gene expression. His studies often integrate clinical and population-based approaches to address health disparities in minority communities.
