Mounica was a hematology/oncology fellow in the Tothova lab prior to her chief medical residency at the Brigham and Women's Hospital. Mounica's work in the lab was focused on understanding the role of DNA damage repair as a therapeutic vulnerability in cohesin-mutant cancers. She was instrumental in the development of new models of cohesin-mutant MDS and AML using syngeneic transplants and patient-derived xenografts.
