Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Miiko Sokka, an instructor at John Brown University, investigates diverse topics, including DNA repair mechanisms, mitochondrial function and pathology, microtubule and mitosis dynamics, bacterial genetics and biotechnology, and CRISPR-based genetic engineering. Sokka's research explores the intersection of genomic stability and cellular senescence, as evidenced by a recent study on the spatial mapping of cellular senescence. Sokka also studies the impact of radiation-mimicking chemicals on mitochondrial health, with findings suggesting that genomic instability is not always linked to lasting mitochondrial damage. Sokka's work extends to refining genomic techniques, demonstrated by a 2025 publication detailing an improved short nascent strand sequencing protocol (iSNS-seq) to enhance DNA replication origin detection.
