Charanya Muralidharan studies the biology of type 1 (autoimmune) diabetes, focusing on how insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas respond to stress and inflammation and how immune cells contribute to their destruction. Recent work examines specific molecular pathways—such as cellular stress responses, lipid signaling enzymes, and immune-modulating proteins—that influence whether these cells survive or die. Earlier research addressed a separate area: predicting physical traits like hair shape and skin color from DNA for forensic and anthropological use.
