About
Jeni P. Mahida is a translational scientist whose work bridges chemical biology and functional genomics to accelerate drug discovery. Based at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC), Mahida has been instrumental in establishing and advancing high-throughput screening platforms that enable the rapid identification and repurposing of therapeutic compounds. Her landmark paper, "Chemical & RNAi Screening at MSKCC: A Collaborative Platform to Discover & Repurpose Drugs to Fight Disease," details the creation of a state-of-the-art High-throughput Screening Core Facility (HTSCF) equipped with modern robotics and custom-built data management resources. This work provides a foundational blueprint for how academic institutions can systematically query chemical and RNAi screening data to uncover new treatments. While her most cited paper has garnered 2 citations, its significance lies in its role as a methodological cornerstone for collaborative, open-access drug discovery. Mahida’s contributions exemplify how infrastructure and interdisciplinary teamwork can transform bench-side discoveries into clinical opportunities, making her a key figure in the fight against complex diseases.
