My research focuses on DNA damage repair mechanisms and their critical role in maintaining genomic stability. Additionally, I study bone marrow failure and the repair processes that occur in response to radiation exposure. The overarching goal is to better understand the cellular and molecular pathways involved in DNA repair and tissue regeneration, with the aim of developing targeted therapies for radiation-induced injuries and related blood disorders.
