Miran Rada is a scientist of Kurdish-Iraqi descent, currently residing in Canada. He was born in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq and completed his undergraduate education at the University of Sulaimani. Rada earned his PhD in 2016 from University of Leicester,[1] focusing on oncology, which laid the foundation for his subsequent research endeavours. Rada emigrated to the United States, where he began his career at Albany Medical College in 2016. He moved to Canada to work at McGill University, eventually joining Komar University of Science and Technology.[2][3]
Rada's research has made significant contributions to understanding cancer biology,[4][5] particularly in the context of colorectal cancer and ovarian cancer.[6] He has extensively studied vessel co-option,[7] a process that tumors use to evade treatment and resist anti-cancer therapies. His work has highlighted the role of vessel co-option in anti-cancer resistance among patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLMs)[8] and has also explored mechanisms behind cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer.[9] Through both in vitro and in vivo studies, Rada has elucidated the molecular mechanisms underlying vessel co-option, providing valuable insights that could inform future therapeutic strategies against cancer.[10][11][12][13] His contributions are recognized within the scientific community, as he continues to advance research in oncology and related fields.[14][15]
