Genomics

Sangeet Lamichhaney, Ph.D., assistant professor in the Department of Biological Sciences, conducted fieldwork in the western Himalayas in May 2024

A Kent State faculty researcher in the Department of Biological Sciences has launched a pioneering study to explore how different species adapt to high-altitude environments in the Himalayas where oxygen levels are significantly lower. This research could have significant implications for understanding hypoxia-related conditions in humans.
