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. -
Meghan Marjorie Shea
Postdoctoral Scholar, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioMeghan is a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University, where she studies how to best use environmental DNA (eDNA)—little bits of DNA left behind by organisms in their ecosystems—for marine biodiversity monitoring. Her interdisciplinary approach blends science & technology studies and ocean sciences, drawing on her dual training as a social scientist and engineer. Working from the archives to the laboratory to the field, she advances eDNA tools while interrogating their social context and epistemic implications. Prior to her postdoc, she received a PhD in the Emmett Interdisciplinary Program in Environment & Resources at Stanford, an MPhil in Nature, Society and Environmental Governance from Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar, and a BS in Environmental Systems Engineering from Stanford. When she's not thinking about environmental DNA, she loves cooking elaborate vegetarian meals, nurturing her house plants, and finding ways to spend as much time as possible on or near the ocean!
