Sonika Patial is a Scientist / Pathologist in the Comparative and Molecular Pathogenesis Branch (CMPB) in the Division of Translational Toxicology (DTT) at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS). Additionally, she is an adjunct Associate Professor in the Department of Population Health and Pathobiology, College of Veterinary Medicine, North Carolina State University.
Dr. Patial received her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from The College of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Palampur, India (2003); her Master of Veterinary Science in Animal Biotechnology from Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar, India (2005); and her PhD from Michigan State University, East Lansing (2010). She completed her Veterinary Anatomic Pathology residency training from Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge (2016). Dr. Patial is a diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Pathologists.
Before joining DTT, Dr. Patial was a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the Department of Comparative Biomedical Sciences in the LSU School of Veterinary Medicine (2017-2022), where she established an independent research program focused on investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying environmentally induced inflammatory diseases of the lung. During her tenure, she secured significant research funding, including an R01 grant, and received several accolades, such as the ASIP Early Career Investigator Award, the Lung COBRE Investigator Award, multiple placements on the Dean’s Teacher Merit Honor Roll, and the LSU Alumni Association Rising Faculty Research Award. Dr. Patial's contributions to the field include multiple peer-reviewed publications, teaching and mentoring, and invited talks, demonstrating her expertise in both research and training the next generation of scientists. Her current research interests center on understanding the molecular pathology of occupational and environmentally induced pathologies particularly the impact of environment on chemical exposures and their contribution to respiratory health and chronic respiratory diseases.
