Research Focus

Singh studies testicular germ cell tumors to find the epigenetic mechanisms that regulate the chemoresponse in TGCTs. He seeks to understand the role of H3K27 methylation in chemo-resistance or chemo-sensitivity in germ cell lines, and the role of microRNAs in chemo-resistance or chemo-sensitivity in germ cell lines.
