Biography

Jody Rosenblatt is a Professor of Cell Biology at King's College London where she leads a research group focused on understanding the mechanisms of epithelial cell extrusion and its implications in various diseases including cancer and asthma. After completing her PhD at the University of California, San Francisco under Dr. Timothy Mitchison, she undertook postdoctoral research at the MRC-LMCB at University College London. Her work has led to significant discoveries in the regulation of cell numbers within epithelia, examining the balance between cell death and division. Her lab utilizes a range of experimental techniques to study how mechanical forces affect cellular behavior, particularly under stress conditions that may lead to pathologies. She believes that uncovering the fundamental biology of cell death can illuminate potential therapeutic pathways for diseases that currently lack viable treatment options. Throughout her career, she has been recognized with various awards, including her recent election to the EMBO Membership, a testament to her contributions to the field. Through collaboration with multidisciplinary partners, she aims to deliver innovative biomedical research solutions to pressing health challenges.
