Education

Theodore attended his early schooling at Campion Anglo Indian Higher Secondary School.

Theodore pursued his Bachelors in Zoology at the Bishop Heber College (Bharathidasan University) and later went on to attend Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, where he earned a Masters in Biotechnology. He later returned back to India to pursue a Post Graduate Diploma in Stem Cell Technology and Tissue Engineering at the University of Madras (Madras, India). He later started working on his Ph.D in Biotechnology exploring avenues in Cancer. He was the first to repurpose the "orphan drug" Tideglusib for Neuroblastoma and Ovarian cancers using in vitro studies.[1][2] His recent publication on GSK-3 explores the significance of GSK-3 as an 'Ace' among kinases.[3]

Positions

He pursued various postdoctoral positions at Nova Southeastern University, Baylor College of Medicine, University at Buffalo and University of Oklahoma.

He currently hold a Biology Faculty position at the Oklahoma School of Science and Mathematics with additional responsibilities as Director of the Mentorship Program and the IRSP (Investigative Research Scholar Program).
