Dhrubajyoti Chowdhury earned his Ph.D in Neuroscience at University of Navarra, Spain . His work identified the molecular mechanisms for the endocytosis of NMDA-type glutamate receptors (GluRs). During his postdoctoral research at University of California Davis, he identified PSD-95 palmitoylation as a critical mechanism regulating AMPA-type GluRs. Before joining GITAM, Dr. Chowdhury worked at Yale University as associate faculty studying the dynamic regulation of synaptic adhesion molecules.
