Dr. Mohit Kumar Jolly earned his Bachelors and Masters degrees at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IITK), India. There he began to recognize the promise of mathematics or theoretical physics to understand complex biological systems. He joined Dr. Herbert Levine at Rice University in Texas for his PhD to study the intrinsic characteristics of cancer metastasis. In addition to his research, Jolly has lead outreach and science communication initiatives, including co-founding Notes on Engineering Research and Development (NERD), a quarterly campus science magazine at IITK, and developing and conducting workshops for graduate students and post-docs on ‘Communicating Science to non-experts’ at Rice University.
