Postdoctoral Scholar
University of California, Irvine
irvine, California, United States
Sumira Phatak pursued her baccalaureate in biology at Northeastern Illinois University and doctorate in toxicology from Utah State University. She has been within ASN since joining in 2017 and currently serves as the SIG Chair-elect. Growing up as an athlete, living healthfully has been second nature and it may come as no surprise that the focal point of her dissertation was to understand the complex interaction between nutrition, patterns of transgenerational inheritance, and gut microbial composition that ultimately influence colorectal cancer or metabolic disease outcomes. Sumira recently broadened her emphasis to include the impact area of transgenerational obesogen exposure and epigenetic remodeling as a postdoctoral fellow in the Blumberg Laboratory at the University of California, Irvine. She has a keen interest in science communication and actively shares the cool science of herself and others via multiple platforms, while promoting inclusive excellence. Having an appetite for adventure, she is an avid outdoor enthusiast and foodie. Her passion for science has grown alongside love of backcountry exploration, photography, and upcycling, where she spend every ounce of free time.
