Previously, he was an Assistant Professor of Pharmacology at the University of North Carolina[5], and a research fellow at All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India[6].
Biography
Dr. Alahari obtained his Bachelor of Science in Biology and Master of Science in Human Genetics from Andhra University, India[7] in 1983 and 1986 respectively. His Ph.D. in Molecular Biology was awarded by Drexel University, Philadelphia[8] in the year 1994. During his Ph.D, he discovered a protein, prp4, plays an important role in pre-mRNA splicing. From 1994 to 1998, Dr. Alahari did a post-doctoral fellowship at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Since 1998, he has been a faculty member at the University of North Carolina[9].
