Abstract

ABSTRACT First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Roopali Pradhan is first author on ‘Lamin A/C modulates spatial organization and function of the Hsp70 gene locus via nuclear myosin I’, published in JCS. Roopali conducted the research described in this article while an integrated MS-PhD student in Dr Kundan Sengupta's lab at Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER), Pashan, Pune, India. She is now a postdoctoral research associate in the lab of Prof. Julie Ahringer at Wellcome Trust/Cancer Research UK Gurdon Institute, UK, where she is interested in understanding chromatin organization across development and ageing, particularly the regulation imparted by nuclear landmarks and transcriptional activity in shaping local and global genome architecture.
