Ikjot Singh Sohal's research centers on extracellular vesicles (tiny membrane-bound particles that cells release to communicate with each other) and how cancer cells use them to evade the immune system and spread. This work spans mechanisms of vesicle formation, engineered microRNA-based cancer therapies, and, in earlier work, the safety of ingested and engineered nanomaterials in the body. The research combines cell biology, cancer biology, and nanotechnology approaches, often using electron microscopy and biosensing tools to study these processes.
Publication output has grown markedly over the last decade, rising from sporadic single papers before 2021 to a notable surge of activity in 2022-2023, followed by continued but somewhat variable output through 2025.
