Background
Sanchit has interdisciplinary interests of understanding cellular behavior under 3D confinement and fabricating tissue-mimicking biomaterials for medical applications. During his MS thesis, he investigated the molecular mechanisms regulating epithelial cell migration in the embryonic mouse salivary gland using pharmacological perturbations and genetic knockouts both, coupled with two-photon live imaging.
