Cellular functions (including stem cells)
Course Code: Cellular functionsAbout This Course
The main objective of this course is to explore the fundamental principles underlying cellular functions such as nutrients distribution, signal transmission, repair, and detoxification. Through this course, students will gain an understanding of how cells coordinate with one another and communicate with their external environment to maintain physiological balance and homeostasis. The course will also emphasize how disruptions in these cellular processes contribute to the development of diseases, thereby linking basic cell biology to humans heath and pathology.

Pooja Agarwal
Dr. Pooja Agarwal is a biomedical scientist focused on cellular microbiology and host-pathogen dynamics. She obtained her Ph.D. from the Central Drug Research Institute (CDRI) in Lucknow, India, studying the role of adipose tissue in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) latency and reactivation. During her postdoctoral work at the University of Cape Town, she researched Mtb persistence in foamy macrophages and the pharmacodynamics of anti-tubercular agents. Before joining KSAS, she was a Research Fellow in the Monash-Warwick Antimicrobial Resistance Program at the University of Warwick, UK, where her research involved nanoparticle drug delivery for intracellular Mtb and circadian modulation of Staphylococcus aureus invasion in epithelial cells.
