Shashank Chetty, PhD
Research Scientist @ Stanford University School of Medicine
About
Dr. Shashank is a Post-doctoral Scholar at Radiology, School of Medicine, Stanford University. He was awarded the University Gold Medal from Pondicherry University in the Master's program and the Prestigious Inspire Fellowship from the Department of Science & Technology, Government of India, in the Doctoral program. He has publications in a reputed international journal with an average impact factor of 6.6. He has experience in intravital imaging of cellular therapy (i.e., umbilical cord-derived MSCs) and early cancer diagnosis (i.e., melanoma) using pre-clinical modalities (optical, MRI, and CT). Dr. Shashank is working on understanding and stimulating the regenerative signature of cellular therapies (i.e.,source-specific mesenchymal stem cells and human pancreatic islets) at molecular and functional levels using novel pulsed-focused ultrasound technology. He is performing experiments on priming cells (to increase their bioenergetic health and organ (to modulate the micro-environment) in addition to loco-regional administration of therapies for improving the therapeutic outcomes. Also, to increase the release and therapeutic cargo within these MSCs-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) to treat different diseases (i.e., diabetes millets, ARDS, kidney injury, Inflammatory bowel diseases, and Alzheimer's) in rodent models.
