Dharini van der Hoeven, Ph.D. Postdoctoral Fellow Originally from Sri Lanka, I completed my undergraduate training at University of Colombo, following which my postgraduate education has taken me on a scenic (but very cold) route. I received an MS from Dalhousie University, Canada and PhD from Medical College of Wisconsin. Seeking warmer climes, I moved to Houston in January 2009 and joined the department of Integrative Biology and Pharmacology, where my work focuses on characterization of the structural components of Ras nanoclusters and to decipher the mechanisms responsible for regulating Ras signal output.
