Dr. Prem Kaushal and Dr. Rajender Motiani Join The European Molecular Biology Organization Global Investigator Network

 Dr. Prem Kaushal and Dr. Rajender Motiani, who both are Associate Professors at RCB, have been selected for the EMBO Global Investigator Network. Dr. Prem Kaushal’s research focuses on protein synthesis in pathogenic microbes, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Entamoeba histolytica. Dr. Rajender Motiani’s research program focuses on understanding the role of calcium driven inter-organelle crosstalk in skin pigmentation.

 The EMBO Global Investigator Network supports young group leaders in Chile, India, Singapore and Taiwan. The new global investigators will become part of an international network of nearly 800 current and former EMBO Global Investigators, Young Investigators and Installation Grantees, and will start in January 2025.

 “EMBO is excited to welcome the new EMBO Global Investigators. Their research highlights the universal language of discovery and provides diverse perspectives to tackle foundational research questions as well as global challenges. We are delighted to support these outstanding group leaders in forming connections with scientists in Europe and around the world,” said EMBO Director Prof. Fiona Watt.
