Dr. Joshi is an Adjunct Assistant Professor at the G Oppenheimer Center for Neurobiology of Stress and Resilience (CNSR) at UCLA. She has worked with Dr. Chang (co-director of grant) on pathophysiologic mechanisms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) for the past 8 years. Her research focuses on bioinformatic analysis to study brain-gut-microbiome axis in IBS. Her research aims at understanding molecular mechanisms that mediate environmental effects on disease phenotype. Dr. Joshi’s expertise includes analysis and integration of gut microbiome, epigenetic and gene expression data, with specific training in the key research areas. She has published articles in various high profile journals including Nature. As a Co-Investigator on the CNSR’s NIH SCOR and PI on a NIH/CURE pilot seed grant, she is involved in conducting various studies geared at investigating sex differences and molecular pathways associated with IBS. Additionally, she collaborates extensively with groups sharing similar interests and produces several peer-reviewed publications from each project.
