Alejandro Sandoval Lentisco
Postdoctoral Scholar, SCRDP/ Heart Disease Prevention
BioAlejandro completed his PhD in Psychology at the University of Murcia, Spain, in 2024. His doctoral research focused on assessing transparency and risk of bias in psychology meta-analyses. Prior to this, he obtained an MSc in Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience from the University of Granada, Spain. In addition to evaluating methodological practices in evidence synthesis and empirical studies, he is interested in a wide range of meta-scientific questions, such as how science self-corrects and how research should be evaluated.

Siddu Shivanagoudra
Postdoctoral Scholar, Gastroenterology
BioSiddu Shivanagoudra is a postdoctoral scholar in the Spencer Lab investigating how gut microbiota-derived metabolites modulate intestinal immune signaling and barrier function. He holds an MS in Horticultural Sciences and a PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Texas A&M University. His work spans tryptophan metabolite biology, AHR/GPR35 signaling, and defined bacterial consortia, integrating cellular, transcriptomic, and metabolomic approaches. Siddu aims to translate these mechanistic insights into microbiome-targeted therapeutic strategies for inflammatory gut diseases.

Gulshan Singh
Postdoctoral Scholar, Gastroenterology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy current research interest is to understand the host-microbial pathways in intestinal inflammation. I am working to explore cellular heterogeneity at single immune cell level in systemic and local regions of the intestine that are associated with different Inflammatory bowel disease conditions.

Laura van Dam
Postdoctoral Scholar, Immunology and Rheumatology
BioI am both trained as a biomedical researcher and medical doctor in internal medicine and strive to close the gap between the clinic and fundamental sciences with translational research. My focus is to study the mechanisms of autoimmune diseases and to translate research insights into therapeutics targeting autoimmunity. I have received my PhD in 2022 in Leiden for studying neutrophil extracellular traps and autoreactive B cells in renal autoimmune diseases. My postdoctoral research project in the Robinson lab focuses on investigating the underlying molecular mechanisms of the pathogenesis of ANCA-associated vasculitis. I particularly aim to identify potential microbial triggers and molecular mimicry in ANCA-associated vasculitis, by characterizing the nasal microbiome and sequencing T cells and B cells of ANCA-associated vasculitis patients.
