Damita Rai
Research Assistant
I am a Research Assistant in the Wade-Martins group at the University of Oxford, working on cellular models of Parkinson’s disease. My research focuses on understanding mechanisms of neurodegeneration, particularly lysosomal dysfunction, using iPSC-derived neuronal systems. I previously conducted research at Harvard Medical School, where I worked with iPSC-derived neuronal models to study disease-relevant cellular phenotypes. I am interested in how cellular pathways contribute to disease progression and how these insights can inform therapeutic strategies. Please feel free to get in touch via email.
