Biography
Santiago Partida-Sanchez, PhD is a Principal Investigator at The Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. He is an Associate Professor of Pediatrics at the Ohio State University College of Medicine. Dr. Partida-Sanchez’s NIH funded research program focuses on identifying mechanisms of activation of calcium cellular signals via TRP type ion channels. His team's goal is to elucidate how those pathways impact on the functions of innate immune cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells. Dr. Partida-Sanchez's research will provide insights into how inflammatory cells are recruited during infection or inflammation, and will help to develop cellular migration inhibitors with therapeutic potential.
