    Biography

    Institute for Stem Cell Science and Regenerative Medicine (DBT-inStem)

    Dr. Inamdar did her Ph.D. at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai and postdoctoral research at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, USA. She has formerly held the positions of Professor and Chairperson (Molecular Biology and Genetics Unit), JNCASR; Dean (Fellowships and Extension Programmes), JNCASR; Adjunct Professor, inStem and Visiting Professor, Tata Institute for Genetics and Society Centre at inStem. She is a fellow of the Indian Academy of Science and the Indian National Science Academy.[3]

    Research

    CRISPR modulated stem cell lines
    Mouse embryo vasculature

    Inamdar's group works on the basic biology of stem cells.

    The group led by her has developed normal stem cell lines from defective embryos and these have been deposited at the UK Stem Cell Bank.

    induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) for which they have generated mouse and human induced iPS cells. Her studies have been documented by way of a number of articles and resource materials.[5]

    Professional activities

    Inamdar has carried out projects for the Department of Biotechnology, the Department of Science and Technology, the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research and other international agencies including the UK-India Education and Research Initiative (UKIERI), Indo-US Science and Technology Forum (IUSSTF), The Wellcome Trust, UK, the DBT-Indo-Danish programme and the Indo-French Centre for the Promotion of Advanced Research (IFCPAR/CEFIPRA).[6]

    She is a member or life member of the Indian Society of Cell Biology,[7] the Society for Developmental Biology, USA, the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR), the North American Vascular Biology Organization (NAVBO) and the Indian Society of Developmental Biologists.[8]

    She represents India in the International Stem Cell Initiative (ISCI) and the International Stem Cell Banking Initiative (ISCBI) where she is also a member of the steering group. She also serves as an expert and advisor in various capacities in several national and international committees including hESC Registry Europe, International Stem Cell Registry, Europe. She is Chairperson or a member of several national and institutional advisory and review committees for ethics and stem cell research. Inamdar is a member of the Global Forum on Bioethics in Research (GFBR) planning committee (2019) and the World Health Organization (WHO) expert advisory committee to examine the scientific, ethical, social and legal challenges associated with Human Genome editing.

    Honors

    Inamdar was selected as a Young Associate of the Indian Academy of Sciences in 1999.[9] The Department of Biotechnology (DBT) of the Government of India awarded her the National Bioscience Award for Career Development, .[1] She was awarded the National Women Bioscientist Award, in 2011. The Indian Academy of Sciences honoured her with elected fellowship in 2017.[10] She was also elected Fellow of the Indian National Science Academy in 2018. She was awarded the Dr Kalpana Chawla Award for 2017[11][12] and the Prof. C.N.R. Rao Oration Award[13] and the J C Bose National Fellowship in 2019.
