DESCRIPTION:Rashmi Priya      She has diverse research interests and he
 r career has spanned across three continents. She did her Masters from Ind
 ia where she was supported by scholarships to work on the cell biology of 
 malaria parasites (JNU\, New Delhi) and cancer metastasis (CRI-TMC\, Mumba
 i). For her PhD\, Rashmi secured international PhD fellowships and moved t
 o Australia\, to work with Alpha Yap at IMB\, UQ. During her PhD\, she dis
 covered novel signalling pathways required to maintain epithelial tissue i
 ntegrity during health and disease. For her postdoctoral training\, Rashmi
  moved to Germany to work with Didier Stainier at Max Planck Institute for
  Heart and Lung Research\, Germany. She was awarded fellowships from EMBO 
 and Humboldt foundation and a DFG research grant. During her post-doc\, Ra
 shmi used her interdisciplinary background to provide novel insights into 
 cardiac trabeculation\, a less understood process critical for heart funct
 ion. In February 2021\, Rashmi started her own lab at the Francis Crick In
 stitute\, London. Her lab integrates developmental genetics and quantitati
 ve cell/tissue mechanics to address how organs are shaped inside a develop
 ing embryo.\n
