- Badrul Arefin, PhD
Cancerfonden Postdoctoral Researcher
Sahlgrenska Academy, Gothenburg University
This website was built mainly to describe my research profile to the interested people. Please go to the
respective sections to know more about my research and myself. On Research page, I provided a link where I tried to describe my
research works in relatively plain english that aimed at people who come from different background than biology.
Currently I am working as a Cancerfonden postdoctoral fellow at Gothenburg University, Sweden. My on-going work focuses on
cancer biology, more specifically in neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer that accounts for 15% of childhood cancer
mortality. It is a disease which arises from the sympathetic nervous system. Our aim is to understand the key events that
drive the neuroblastoma in mouse and Drosophila models at single cell resolution and provide therapeutics to combat this disease.
