BIO

Dr. Muhammad Mubashshir, an Associate Professor in Life Sciences at Vivekananda Global University, Jaipur, Rajasthan since July 24, 2023, is renowned for his intensive research on signal transduction mechanisms in melanophores derived from neural crest cells. His focus includes understanding the molecular intricacies of motor proteins like kinesin and dynein during melanosomes' translocation in cutaneous and peritoneal melanophores of lower vertebrates. Additionally, Dr. Mubashshir explores the utility of melanophores as bioindicators for detecting environmental pollutants. Alongside his research, he is passionate about teaching Biochemistry and Physiology, actively engaging in academic activities at the university.
