Research summary
AI-generated

Mohini Kamra's research spans chemical biology and cancer biology, including designing lipid- and metal-based compounds for gene delivery and cancer cell targeting, studying DNA structures (G-quadruplexes) as drug targets, and more recently investigating how the physical and metabolic environment of tumors (such as extracellular matrix fiber alignment and nutrient availability) affects cancer cell behavior and migration. The work combines synthetic chemistry approaches with cell biology and cancer metabolism studies.
