During his post-doctoral work, Dr. Pourkarimi focused his research on understanding the effect of chromatin modifiers in cellular response during acute stress conditions. He then moved to New York City and worked as a Research Associate in the lab of Dr. Iestyn Whitehouse at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center where he studied DNA replication.
