Biography
Dr. Rashmi Sood received her PhD in Molecular Biology from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, India. Her postdoctoral studies were conducted at the Blood Research Institute at Versiti Blood Center of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, where she specialized in coagulation and vascular biology. Dr. Sood’s studies are largely focused on understanding the role of thrombotic and hemorrhagic complications in placenta-mediated adverse pregnancy outcomes. Her laboratory develops and utilizes rodent models to identify maternal and fetal factors that regulate placental and uterine hemostasis. In parallel, her laboratory seeks to discover predictive biomarkers that can be used to identify high-risk pregnancies in women.
