Anushka Dongre, PhD

About

Dr. Anushka Dongre is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biomedical Sciences, and Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at Cornell University, Ithaca, NY. She obtained her BS and MS degrees in Microbiology from the University of Mumbai, India. Her graduate training in T-cell biology was supervised by Dr. Barbara A. Osborne, at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, where she studied the role of non-canonical Notch signaling in regulating T-cell function. She pursued her postdoctoral work in the laboratory of Dr. Robert A. Weinberg, at the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, MA. Her lab is focussed on understanding how eptihelial-mesenchymal plasticity drives resistance of breast cancers to immune checkpoint blockade therapies.
