Biswapriya Misra, PhD

I am an Assistant Professor at the Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Winston-Salem, NC, USA conducing biomedical research leveraging the power of high resolution mass-spectrometry driven metabolomics, alongside other omics (genomics, proteomics, and large scale clinical data sets)  to under human metabolic disorders (cardiovascular, obesity, and Alzheimer’s disease) and health-cum-wellness (in respect to diet, aging, microbiome, and exposures) in the era of individualized medicine. Using big data from diverse omics data sources, combined with open source tools and reproducible workflows to conduct research using FAIR practices, I wish to develop robust non-invasive biomarkers from human and non-human model organism biofluids and tissues through these multi-omics/ integrated-omics efforts. My current interests are in single-cell-type metabolomics of human diseases using state of the art high-resolution mass-spectrometry platforms to integrate individuals molecular features (genes, proteins, metabolites), pathways, and networks for a systems-scale understanding of cellular metabolic functions.
