Vanessa Mondol

Vanessa Mondol is an Associate Research Scientist at Yale University's Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry Department, affiliated with the Yale School of Medicine. She holds a PhD in Biology from the University of California, San Diego (2015). Her research focuses on molecular mechanisms of RNA processing, microRNA regulation, and developmental biology in Caenorhabditis elegans. Mondol's work integrates genetic, biochemical, and genomic approaches to study post-transcriptional gene regulation and its role in organismal development.

Key research interests include:

• MicroRNA biogenesis and function
• RNA interference pathways
• Developmental timing mechanisms
• Post-transcriptional control of gene expression

Her publications (2010–2015) explore topics like Drosha processing of primary microRNAs, synthetic genetic systems for evolutionary engineering, and RNA binding protein regulation of developmental miRNAs. No awards or grants are explicitly listed in available records.
