Excited to share a big milestone, the Verma Lab divijvermalab.com is now OPEN @einsteinmededu.bsky.social

We study how environmental exposures & inflammation drive stem-cell dysfunction and cancer.

Grateful to mentors Amit Verma & @steidluli.bsky.social .

We’re #NIH R01-funded lab and #hiring

Honored to receive my 1st independent R01 grant to study how environmental exposures impact stem cells, aging, and clonal hematopoiesis.

I’m looking for a faculty position to establish my lab. Grateful to my mentor Amit Verma for the support.

Attending #ASH24? Interested in exploring novel CH mutations and potential therapies in WTC 9/11-exposed individuals. Let’s discuss how environmental exposures impact #cancer risk. I'm speaking on Dec 9—looking forward to connecting! @ash-hematology.bsky.social @einsteinmededu.bsky.social
