Anubhuti Dixit, PhD
Amity University, Indian Institute of Science, Banaras Hindu University
About
I have completed my PhD degree from CSIR-Indian Institute of Toxicology Research/Banaras Hindu University in 2014. My PhD work was focused on comparison of the mitochondrial proteome profile of toxins MPTP and combined maneb and paraquat-induced mouse models of Parkinson’s disease. The study demonstrated that these toxins induce mitochondrial dysfunction and alter the expression of a bunch of mitochondrial proteins leading to the dopaminergic neurodegeneration. After completing PhD, I have joined Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore for postdoctoral research. During my postdoctoral work, I identified a chemosensory neuronal G protein-coupled receptor which regulates life span in diet and temperature dependent manner in Caenorhabditis elegans. I joined Amity University in April, 2018. My current research interests include understanding the mechanism of neuronal regulation of aging and its effect on age associated neurodegeneration. As a faculty member of Amity Institute of Neuropsychology and Neurosciences, I am teaching various UG and PG courses including Principles of Neuroscience, Fundamentals of Neurophysiology, Neuroethology, Social Neuroscience, Chronobiology and Sensory and Motor System.
