Tong Shan
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry
BioTong completed her Ph.D. at the University of Rochester. She also holds an M.S. in Biostatistics from Northwestern University and a B.S. in Medical Imaging from Sichuan University.
In her research, Tong has explored topics such as subcortical and cortical neural responses to naturalistic speech and music, neural mechanisms underlying musical perception, and the impact of visual cues on speech-in-noise comprehension.
Currently, Tong is involved in the Speaker-Listener projects, where she investigates brain activities related to natural communication. She is excited to deepen her understanding of auditory processing of speech during communication and its implications for improving quality of life, particularly in clinical populations such as individuals with ASD, AD, etc.
Outside of her research, Tong is a music producer, creating original songs and soundtracks for video games. She has a passion for exploring the intersection of art and technology. -
Saurabh Sharma
Postdoctoral Scholar, General and Vascular Surgery
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe develop strategies to transport immunotherapeutic molecules across the blood-brain barrier for imaging and treating brain metastatic cancer. Currently, under the mentorship of Dr. Amanda Kirane, I have continued my work in cancer-targeted nanotechnology for the treatment of melanoma brain metastases. Immunotherapy of small peptides, small molecules.

Tanya Sharma
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology
BioTanya's interests span across studying G-Protein Coupled Receptors and the biochemistry of membrane proteins. During her doctoral studies, she worked as a visiting researcher at the National Research Council of Canada, Ottawa (Sussex laboratories) from 2019-2023 uncovering the role of an ancient mating receptor Ste3 in microbial pathogenesis and chemotropism. During her current position at Butcher lab, she is using High Performance Computing (HPC) platforms to guide her search for interesting ligand-receptor interactions. This involves using a combination of computation tools, cell based and analytical chemistry techniques for discovery and validation phase respectively.
Outside of science, she is an avid musician and a singer.
