Dr. Sourav Ghosh

Biography

Sourav Ghosh, Ph.D., is a Professor in the field of Neurology at Yale University School of Medicine. He obtained his M.Sc. in Zoology from the University of Calcutta, focusing on Drosophila mosquito genetics, and later completed his PhD in Molecular Sciences at the University of Tennessee in 2000. Dr. Ghosh subsequently pursued postdoctoral research on cell signaling at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies under the mentorship of Tony Hunter. In 2007, he joined the University of Arizona as an Assistant Professor and transitioned to Yale University in 2014. Dr. Ghosh leads a laboratory with Dr. Carla Rothlin, where their research centers on the regulation of inflammation, a critical aspect of immune defense. They investigate molecular mechanisms that negatively regulate inflammation to ensure an appropriate response in various pathological conditions, including chronic inflammation and autoimmunity. Through their studies, they aim to harness this knowledge to improve anti-cancer immunity.
