Academic Biography
Dr Shweta Kuba is a Lecturer of Bioinformatics in the School of Health and Life Sciences.
Dr Kuba completed her postgraduate studies (MSc & PhD in Bioinformatics) in India. During her PhD, she was awarded Israel Government Fellowship to work at A.R.O, Israel. She got SERB-NPDF grant from the Department of Science and Technology, India. In 2020, Dr. Kuba started exploring the genetic mutation-specific potential drug targets, with a prestigious grant from the Medical Research Council at the Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health, University of Manchester, United Kingdom. In 2021, Dr Kuba joined the Institute of Life Course and Medical Sciences, University of Liverpool, United Kingdom to focus on musculoskeletal & ageing science funded by the esteemed Dunhill Medical Grant.
Summary of Research Interests
Currently, her research interests include genetic disease modeling with pluripotent stem cells for drug target delivery, musculoskeletal diseases & developmental disorders, Spatio-temporal regulation of RNA- binding proteins in developmental disorders, and association of altered patterns of mRNA decay with ageing.
