Postdoctoral Fellows
Dr. Chinmaya Patel
I am passionate about contributing to Dr. Ren’s innovative research on Polycomb group proteins and chromatin organization through LLPS. I am eager to help advance our understanding of how LLPS regulates genes and its role in disease. I am honest and kind. In my free time, I enjoy playing badminton, cricket, and tennis, and I love discovering new places to go trekking.
PhD Students
Ahmed Saif
My current research focuses on the fascinating field of epigenetics, specifically the mechanisms and regulations that organize the human genome and control gene expression. When I am not in the lab, you’ll often find me exploring mountains, experiencing cultures through travel and cooking, playing games, or getting lost in the stories of movies and anime.
