Biography

Manjari Singh, PhD, is currently working as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Assam Central University, Silchar, India. She received her PhD degree from Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Lucknow, India. During the doctoral study, she has identified some novel prolyl-hydroxylase activators as potent breast cancer therapeutics. Her research area is focused on the regulation of hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment, in silico-based drug discovery, and in-vitro/in vivo disease models in cancer. Dr. Singh is a member of multiple editor/reviewer boards of different reputed journals and is a recipient of the various research grant. She has published 37 journal papers (authored/co-authored), four book chapters to date, and also been involved in pharmacology teaching to the graduate student.
