MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: Priyanka Baloni

[cid:43840e45-962e-4a43-8ebd-5fd7109146b7]

Dr. Priyanka Baloni is an Assistant Professor in the School of Health Sciences here at Purdue with expertise in computational biology, neuroscience, oncology, reproductive sciences, and infectious diseases. She is joining EMBRIO as an affiliate member contributing to the CORE Thrust. We sat down with Priyanka recently to learn more about her research and teaching activities. She will present her research to EMBRIO on February 13th during our regular Weekly Update. You can read more about Dr. Baloni’s scholarship at her lab website<https://hhs.purdue.edu/directory/priyanka-baloni/>.



Hello Priyanka! You recently arrived at Purdue. Can you tell us more about your career up to this point?



I received my Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Science(IISc), India, working on the host-pathogen interactions in tuberculosis infection. In 2016, I began my postdoctoral position at the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB) and was mentored by Drs. Leroy Hood and Nathan Price. During my research experience at ISB, I collaborated and led computational efforts in various projects focusing on the metabolic signatures in neurodegenerative disorders, pregnancy, and cancer. As a tenure-track faculty in the School of Health Sciences at Purdue, my lab’s research focus is in exploring mechanisms underlying adverse outcomes of environmental exposure on human health using high-throughput data and computational approaches. I think my broad expertise in computational biology, multi-omics analyses, and predictive modeling is a great fit to the research being done in the Core Thrust at EMBRIO, leading to potential collaborations across different labs and paving way for translational research.



In your brief time at Purdue, you’ve hit the ground running. What are some of the collaborations you’ve been involved in and the investigations you have going now?



I am a co-Investigator on four NIH-funded projects and was an MPI for an R01 funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD). My funding from NIH R01s has allowed me to collaborate with researchers from Johns Hopkins University, Duke University, Indiana University, University of Florida, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, and Weill Cornell Medicine. I collaborated on a project with Amgen Inc., in which I generated the genome-scale metabolic model of rat liver to explore the effects of diet restriction and chemical compounds and predict the metabolic outcome. I have used my expertise on metabolic networks for the COVID-19 research at ISB and investigated the metabolic reprogramming of immune cells in COVID-19 patients.


Going forward, I will perform systems-level analysis using genomics and multi-omics data, along with information available from various databases, and leverage the metabolic and transcriptional regulatory networks for rigorous dissection of molecular mechanisms, leading to new insights for improving public health using these data-driven models. This data-driven approach can lead to the generation of testable hypotheses and the development of personalized models predicting the effect of environmental exposure.



You’ve also been active in teaching, mentoring others, and supporting diverse learners. Can you tell us more about those activities?

In addition to research, I value and enjoy teaching and mentoring. I developed many of my core teaching principles during the Science Teaching Experience for Postdocs (STEP) fellowship program, through the University of Washington, where I designed and taught a semester-long course on personalized medicine and wellness with two other postdocs. During this fellowship I learned skills in inquiry-based teaching approaches, curriculum and syllabus development, lesson planning, classroom management and student evaluations. This unique experience provided me with a platform to develop my teaching skills with weekly evaluations and discussions to improve my teaching effectiveness.

My interest in education also extends outside of the classroom, where I have placed a priority on mentoring undergraduate students from diverse economic, racial, ethnic and educational backgrounds. As a teacher and mentor for students, the best way I can contribute to supporting diversity is by supporting students who are at a disadvantage when starting their academic career as an undergraduate or have struggled with challenges throughout their careers. I will identify opportunities for funding and lead in the writing of grants to support equity and inclusion efforts within the Institute.



Thank you for sharing your enthusiasm, research, and teaching experiences. We are excited to have you join EMBRIO as an affiliate member!

Thank you! Being a part of EMBRIO,I foresee opportunities to collaborate with several groups at the Institute as the computational models can be used for studying infectious diseases, host-microbiome interactions, neurotoxins and other conditions. The collaborations can lead to potential funding opportunities and publications. I look forward to being a part of the Core Thrust at EMBRIO and bring in my expertise to complement the ongoing research at EMBRIO.




MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: Gregory Reeves
[cid:d3d23d58-b76d-4e20-a92c-a400a2da34bc]
Dr. Greg Reeves is an Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering at Texas A&M University and a member of the Faculty of the Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in Genetics. He is joining EMBRIO as an affiliate member, contributing to the Thrust 1 and 2 areas of the Institute. He recently presented his research to the EMBRIO community (Dec. 5). You can learn more about Dr. Reeves’ research at his lab website<https://reeveslab.engr.tamu.edu/>. We asked Greg to tell us more about his background, research, and academic activities.


Hi Greg! Thanks for your recent presentation to the Institute. We are excited for you to collaborate with us in EMBRIO. Not long ago you moved your lab to Texas A&M. Can you tell us more about your career up to this point?

Yes, in the middle of the pandemic I moved my lab in the Fall of 2020 to Texas A&M. Prior to that, I worked at NC State University in the Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department for 10 years. I received my Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Princeton University – in the same lab that Jeremy Zartman got his Ph.D. Broadly, my research addresses the question of how cells make reliable decisions in a multicellular context, especially in the face of dynamic signals between cells. My goal is to synergistically use quantitative, in vivo imaging experiments and predictive, mechanistic modeling to deduce the rules of how signaling pathways dictate cellular decision making in tissue development and stem cell differentiation. Our systems biology approach is required to untangle the complexity and dynamics of development.


What are some of the collaborations you’ve been involved in and the investigations you have going now?
We specialize in quantitative imaging in live tissues, including raster image correlation spectroscopy (RICS), which allows us to measure the mobility, binding, and concentration of fluorescently tagged signaling proteins. Our imaging data constrain mechanistic models of these signaling pathways, which in turn allow us to design future experiments. Our primary model system is the 1-3 h old Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly) embryo. We used modeling and experiment synergistically to make novel discoveries of the spreading and cellular interpretation of the Dorsal-mediated signal. These discoveries have revealed previously unknown mechanisms behind the robustness of NF-κB signaling.
Dorsal signaling also restricts the expression of the gene dpp to the dorsal half of the embryo, and dpp codes for the BMP ligand Dpp. We are also studying how the dynamics of Dpp signaling on the dorsal half of the embryo relates to Dpp target gene expression. Our initial work suggests that there are genes that are activated specifically by a transient exposure of Dpp signaling yet have sustained expression due to an unknown memory mechanism. Our work on Dpp signaling in the early embryo also translates to studying Dpp signaling in female germ line stem cell specification, in which Dpp signaling from nearby cells to the germline stem cell represents self-renewal signal. We are studying how the dynamics of the intracellular portion of the Dpp pathway results in robust stem cell decisions.
My research aligns directly with Thrusts 1 and 2 of EMBRIO. My work on Dorsal is both intracellular and intercellular, and thus spans both Thrusts. Similarly, my work on Dpp signaling in the embryo aligns with Thrust 2, while my work in the germline stem cells aligns with Thrust 1.
I have been working on proposals with EMBRIO Institute members David Umulis and Jeremiah Zartman. The proposal focuses on engineering principles found in the BMP/Smad pathway in four model systems. As an outgrowth of the proposed ideas, we are working on a computational study to make predictions of these engineering principles.

You’ve also been active in broadening participation in STEM and supporting diverse learners. Can you tell us more about those activities?
At the high school level, I ran enrichment summer camps at NCSU titled “Bioengineering in the High School Classroom,” specifically targeting high schools from underprivileged areas. At TAMU, I’m integrating the material from the summer camp into STEM summer outreach programs in collaboration with the Spark! PK-12 Engineering Education Outreach and AggieSTEM programs.
At the undergraduate level, I’ve been partnering with TAMU's First-Generation Engineering Students (FGEn) Mentoring Program. TAMU is a federally designated Hispanic Serving Institution (the general population of Texas is close to 40% Hispanic), and many Hispanics in the College of Engineering are first-gen. Data suggest that first-gen students have low retention rates, and that retention rate can be greatly improved by increasing motivation through undergraduate research.
At the grad student level, my group composition has always reflected a commitment to female representation (between 50 and 60% female) in a largely male-dominant field (chemical engineering is roughly 2/3rds male). On the institutional side, the Core Facilities at TAMU are planning to offer pipeline facility workshops that target students at local HBCUs in which I will participate and teach RICS methods. URG students attending HBCUs have less access to state-of-the-art core facilities, and these facility workshops are an opportunity for training in cutting edge research methods.



Thank you for sharing your motivations, research, and supporting diversity. We are excited to have you join EMBRIO as an affiliate member!
Thanks – I am definitely looking forward to integrating into this exciting community of scientists and opening up more opportunities for collaboration.
