Pratibha Malhotra – Professor Marco Falasca’s PhD student, received the student poster award from the Australia and New Zealand Society of Extracellular Vesicles Conference on the Gold Coast in 2022.
Pratibha’s winning poster presentation was titled “Oncogenic small extracellular vesicles enriched in sphingosine-1-phosphate play a crucial role in pancreatic cancer progression.”
We are thrilled to celebrate Professor Marco Falasca as Stanford University’s top 1% of widely cited Scientists.
Professor Falasca has published more than 160 papers in high-impact journals and has been serving as an editorial board member for several international journals.
Professor Falasca’s current projects are dedicated to the investigation of the mechanisms involved in the development and progression of gastrointestinal diseases.
It is with great pleasure that we congratulate Professor Marco Falasca’s PhD student, Pratibha Malhotra, who won a Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) award for her oral presentation at the recent FASEB Science Research Conference. FASEB is an organisation that provides a forum in which to hold educational meetings, develop publications, and disseminate biological research results and encompasses over 130,000 researchers world-wide. Pratibha submitted an abstract for the “Lysophospholipid and Related Mediators Conference: From Bench to Clinic” and was invited as a speaker to present on “Exosomal lysophospholipids play a key role in cancer progression”. The FASEB awards are highly competitive, and this is an outstanding achievement.
When asked about what this award means to her, Pratibha said “I am happy and grateful to receive this award at an international conference. This conference was a wonderful opportunity and I enjoyed working on it. I sincerely thank and appreciate my supervisor, Professor Falasca for his valuable help, support and efforts in the lead-up to this presentation and conference”.
Congratulations Pratibha on this exceptional award and recognition.
