Neeti hails from India originally, and has been living in Boston since a decade. Her fascination for understanding disease mechanisms led her to study biology and graduate with a BS/MS Dual Degree in Biotechnology from Jaypee Institute of Information Technology, India and a MS in Regulatory Sciences from Northeastern University, Boston.
Before enrolling as a doctoral candidate at Dartmouth, Neeti has worked in industry and academia for six years in preclinical cancer research, studying different cancer models and ways to target aberrant signaling pathways using different therapeutic modalities. For her doctoral studies, Neeti is excited to do research at the intersection of cancer biology and immunology, where she can apply her experiential training to understand the intricacies of tumor and immune microenvironment in depth. Neeti loves to read mythologies and historical fiction, running/biking on trails and exploring places. She is looking forward to her time in the upper valley region!
