Madalsa Singh, MS

Originally trained in dentistry, Madalsa Singh transitioned into molecular biology and stem cell research, driven by a deep passion for understanding how the smallest molecular changes can have profound impacts on human health. “Stem cell research, in particular, holds immense potential for regenerative medicine, and I wanted to be at the forefront of that.”

Madalsa earned her Master’s degree in Microbiology and Molecular Biology from San Jose State University, where she specialized in cell biology, and molecular techniques, with a strong foundation in mammalian cell lines, cancer cell biology, and advanced cell culture techniques. She then went on to refine her research and technical skills as a Research Associate Intern at Stanford University’s School of Medicine, gaining valuable insights into drug molecule interactions in cancer cell biology

As a Research Assistant in the Stem Cell Research Department, Madalsa plays a key role in maintaining and culturing adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs). She supports clinical trial preparations and collaborates with a multidisciplinary team to advance stem cell therapies for regenerative medicine.

Outside of the lab, Madalsa enjoys hiking, gardening, and playing badminton. “Being in nature allows me to disconnect, recharge, and appreciate the beauty around me,” she shares. “It reflects my love for adventure, staying active, and sharing meaningful experiences with loved ones.”

Madalsa’s research has been presented at prestigious conferences, including the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine meeting and the American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting. Her contributions to both science and community outreach have earned her recognition, including the President’s Volunteer Service Award for her contributions to science and community outreach.
