Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Geetika KC's research interests encompass mitochondrial function and its role in cellular protection against oxidative stress. She has investigated how factors such as valine and Rho/SRF inhibitors modulate mitochondrial processes. Her work also explores mitochondrial dysfunction in the context of neuroinflammation, specifically relating to *P. gingivalis*-LPS. Additionally, KC has contributed to research on the overexpression of MnSOD as a protective mechanism against cold storage-induced mitochondrial injury in renal tubular cells. Her recent publications also indicate engagement with health policy, including a review of FDA-approved AI/ML cardiovascular devices, an analysis of contraceptive prescribing after a policy change, and a study on mental health disorders' impact on endocrine therapy adherence in breast cancer patients. KC has a documented history of collaboration with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Grishma KC, Jeanne Y. Wei, Pankaj Patyal, and Gohar Azhar.
