Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Dr. Ratna Patel's research at John Brown University focuses on the impact of toxic organic pollutants using zebrafish as a model organism. Her work explores the epigenetic and genetic mechanisms underlying developmental disruptions caused by exposure to pollutants such as dioxin. Recent publications highlight the effects of dioxin on inner ear development, as well as the formation of muscle, nerves, and vasculature in the developing jaw. Patel's investigations also examine the role of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) signaling in neural connectivity and oligodendrocyte precursor cell development within the embryonic zebrafish brain.
Her current work emphasizes zebrafish biomedical research applications within the context of toxic organic pollutant exposure.
