BIOGRAPHY

Dr. Shalini Mani is Associate Professor in the Department of Biotechnology at Jaypee Institute of Information Technology, Noida, India. She has total 17 years of research and 10 years of teaching experience. She completed her PhD from Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology, Hyderabad, where she worked on detailed analysis of clinical biochemical and genetic analysis of Leigh syndrome patients and found an interesting geneotype-phenotype correlation of mitochondrial and nuclear gene mutations in these patients. She did her post-doctorate from Murdoch Children Research Institute, Melbourne Australia. During her post doctorate, she has been awarded with one of the prestigious award of Endeavor Research fellowship, Australia. She did her post-graduation from G B pant University, Pantnagar in Molecular Biology and Genetic Engineering. Throughout this period, her research work has fetched in to several publications in international journals of high repute.

Dr Mani is primarily involved in studying the role of mitochondria in different chronic diseases and effect of different environmental factors on mitochondrial metabolism. As a translational researcher, she is also exploring the molecular mechanism for therapeutic benefits of some selected herbs on mitochondrial activity in different diseases conditions such as diabetes, cancer and neurological disorders too.

RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS

Mitochondria, being a powerhouse of the cellular system are a most important organelle. Along with ATP generation it also helps in removal of oxidative stress from the system. Hence, any perturbation in mitochondrial metabolism may affect several organs and hence cause several diseases/disorders. In the last decade only, research based on various aspects of mitochondria started coming in to the picture. As result of which mitochondrial defects are suggested to be associated with a large number of metabolic and neurological disorders. However, the research exploring the detailed mechanism of participation of mitochondria, it’s possible defects etc in causation and or progress of the large number of diseases are still in infancy. Hence, currently my primary research interest is to explore the mechanism of pathogenic role of mitochondria in common metabolic diseases like cancer and diabetes. To understand the same, my lab is mainly focusing on, bioenergetics of cell system, redox imbalance, mitochondrial genome instability, copy number variation of mtDNA, its possible genetics and mitochondrial- nuclear cross talk during cancer and diabetes.

Our group is also exploring the therapeutic potential of several herbs, known to be rich in potential anti-cancerours natural compounds. Some of these herbs may target the mitochondria of cancerous cells and termed as herbal mitocans. We are aiming to study these herbs and their natural compounds for their anti-proliferative and mitochondria targeting ability using different in-silico (molecular docking and simulation) and in-vitro assays.
