Dr. Aditya Chaubey is the Chief Scientific Officer of Mazumdar Shaw Center for Translational Research and heads the  Anti-Cancer Technologies Program lab. He received his Ph.D. in Bioengineering from Clemson University. His doctoral work involved understanding how biomaterial scaffolds can be used to modulate the differentiation of stem cells. His subsequent work at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center elucidated the role of hematopoietic stem cells in myeloid differentiation and the role of microRNA in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). His long-term interest in applying engineering principles to biology led him to the Biomedical Engineering Program at University of Cincinnati, where he worked in the area of orthopedic tissue engineering to develop novel methods to modulate microRNA in skeletal biology. He is currently the Chief Scientific Officer of Mazumdar Shaw Center for Translational Research and heads the Anti-Cancer Technologies Program lab. He is a member of the American Society of Haematology (ASH), Orthopaedic Research Society (ORS), Sigma Xi and Tissue Engineering & Regenerative Medicine International Society (TERMIS) and a reviewer for journals like PLoS One, Journal of Cell Transplantation and Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology.
