About the Speaker
Dr. Alexander Payumo pursued his PhD studies at Stanford University in the laboratory of Dr. James Chen where he characterized the role of T-box transcription factors during zebrafish embryogenesis using light-activatable chemical probes. It is during this time that he discovered his love for developmental biology. He then recently completed his postdoctoral studies at the Cardiovascular Research Institute at the University of California, San Francisco in the laboratory of Dr. Guo Huang where he studied mouse postnatal development as a model system to discover the physiological triggers that drive the loss of mammalian heart regenerative capacity after birth. As an Assistant Professor in the department of Biological Sciences at San Jose State University, he now combines his passions for student mentorship, teaching, and research and investigates the molecular and cellular mechanisms downstream of hormonal signaling pathways involved in cardiomyocyte cell cycle regulation.
