Aanchal Preet Kaur
Postdoctoral Scholar, Hematology-Oncology
BioDr. Aanchal Preet Kaur is a post-doctoral fellow in the Ramakrishna lab interested in understanding the role of myeloid cells in driving immunosuppression and resistance to CAR T cell therapies in pediatric patients with diffuse midline glioma. Her work involves developing organoid models to study the interaction of myeloid cells and CAR T cells and further employ these models to validate targets identified in patient single cell sequencing data using CRISPR technology.
Dr. Aanchal Preet Kaur received her PhD in Oncology at the University of Nottingham, United Kingdom where she focused on developing dendritic cell vaccines for melanoma. In her earlier post-doctoral work at Providence Cancer Institute with Dr. Michael Gough, she developed spheroid models to study the impact of radiation therapy on immune cell-cancer cell interactions. -
Hyunkyung Claire Kim
Postdoctoral Scholar, Endocrinology and Metabolism
BioHyunkyung Claire Kim is a Postdoctoral Research Scholar in the Translational Genomics of Diabetes Lab led by Dr. Anna Gloyn. She received her PhD in Genetics from the University of Chicago, where she developed a statistical method to disentangle shared and trait-specific genetic architecture across complex diseases using large-scale biobank data. Prior to her doctoral training, she worked at Massachusetts General Hospital, studying the genetic subtypes and heterogeneity of type 2 diabetes through data-driven clustering approaches.
She is interested in the translational genomics of diabetes, including integrating human genetics with multi-omic data to uncover disease mechanisms and advance precision medicine. Her long-term research interests include developing computational methods to understand how genetic, molecular, and environmental factors jointly shape metabolic disease risk, disease heterogeneity, and progression.
