Nagina received a BSc in Biochemistry and an MRes in Stem Cells and Developmental Biology from UCL and a PhD from Imperial College London. As a Yang Tan fellow under the Molecular Therapeutics branch, she is investigating the role of CB1 receptors in development of the striosome dendron bouquets and dopamine signaling pathways. Nagina is also using novel anterograde synaptic tracing methods to elucidate the architecture of these crucial pathways in the basal ganglia and hopes to translate her work into the human brain in the future! ​
