Vivek Malhotra is an Adjunct Professor at the Yale School of Medicine, Yale University. His research focuses on cellular secretion mechanisms, particularly the pathways governing protein export from the endoplasmic reticulum, unconventional protein secretion, and the role of TANGO proteins in fibrosis and tissue scarring. He collaborates with researchers such as Frederic Pincet and investigates the molecular machinery underlying membrane trafficking and cargo sorting.
Key areas of study include the segregation of endoplasmic reticulum exit sites based on cargo size, the function of TANGO1 and TANGO2 proteins in secretion, and the application of peptide inhibitors to modulate collagen secretion in pathological conditions. His work bridges cell biology, biochemistry, and translational medicine, with implications for understanding diseases like fibrosis.
