Research summary
AI-generated

Jagannath Misra studies how cells respond to stress at the molecular level, focusing on pathways in the endoplasmic reticulum (the cell's protein-folding compartment) and the 'integrated stress response' that helps cells cope with adverse conditions. This work connects to diseases including prostate cancer and liver fibrosis, examining topics like how caloric restriction can improve cancer therapy and how stress-signaling proteins drive scarring in the liver.

Publication activity has been irregular but rose sharply in 2025, driven largely by a set of supplementary files from a single cancer study, indicating recent growth in output.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
