FNNDSC Bi-Weekly Lecture Series This Week:
Date/Time: Wednesday May 11, 2022 @ 10 AM
Presenter: Priyanka Narayan
Title: The Role of the Placenta in the Development of Congenital Heart Disease: A Single Cell Perspective
Abstract:
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect and affects approximately 1% of infants. However, the mechanism through which these defects develop remains unknown since only 50% of CHD can be attributed to genetic factors. The placenta and fetal heart are both vascular organs that develop simultaneously, and there is extensive literature about placental abnormalities and their potential impacts on fetal cardiac development. Specifically, studies have found associations between early-onset preeclampsia and increased CHD risk, including atrioventricular septal defect development.
Single cell nuclear RNA sequencing allows us to explore the role of the placenta in the development of CHD at a granular level. In this talk, we will both discuss single cell nuclear RNA sequencing broadly, as well as its potential applications to questions related to CHD development and the placenta.
Biography:
Priyanka Narayan graduated from Harvard University in 2018 with a BA in Molecular and Cellular Biology, Global Health, and Spanish. She is a 4th year medical student at Weill Cornell and is currently a Sarnoff Cardiovascular Research Fellow in the Seidman Lab. She hopes to pursue a career in maternal fetal medicine centered in patient care and translational research.
