First person – Bhuminder Singh

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. Bhuminder Singh is first author on ‘ Induction of apically mistrafficked epiregulin disrupts epithelial polarity via aberrant EGFR signaling’, published in JCS. Bhuminder conducted the research described in this article while a research fellow in Robert J. Coffey's lab at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, TN, USA. He is now an assistant professor at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, investigating the role of EGFR signaling in epithelial homeostasis and disorders such as cancer.
