After more than five years of research, Dr. Akash Gunjan, an assistant professor in the biomedical sciences department, solved a mystery of cell biology that has remained unsolved by scientists for over a century: why "free" histones don't accumulate in large amounts in human cells. With evidence supporting his new hypothesis, Gunjan's work may lead to a new understanding of the inner-workings of our cells... and therefore better ways to treat certain diseases, especially many kinds of cancer.
