About

My lab is interested in understanding the organizational principles of metabolic regulation, and how the metabolic state of a cell determines cell fate. Areas of research in the lab include understanding (i) organization of metabolic networks, and principles of regulation of cell states, (ii) resource allocation strategies and regulators in cells, and (iii) metabolic exchange, division of labor, and specialization of metabolic functions.

I am an Associate Investigator at the Institute for Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine (inStem), within the Bangalore Biocluster. Previously, I was a postdoctoral fellow in the Dept. of Biochemistry at UT Southwestern Medical Center, with Drs. Benjamin Tu and Steven McKnight. I completed my Ph.D. with Dr. Joseph Beavo at the University of Washington (Dept. of Pharmacology).

Our research integrates systems-level approaches with detailed molecular mechanisms, and includes mass-spectrometry based metabolite/metabolic flux analysis, genomics and proteomics, genetics, biochemistry, and cell biology. You can read more about our work at http://sunillaxmanlab.weebly.com
