Dr. Miranda is a board-certified Comparative Pathologist at the Laboratory of Comparative Pathology (LCP) and the Genetically Modified Animal Phenotyping Service of the Center of Comparative Medicine and Pathology, which serves Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Weill Cornell Medicine, the Hospital for Special Surgery, and The Rockefeller University. She currently holds faculty appointments as a Research Associate at The Rockefeller University’s Comparative Bioscience Center, as an Assistant Laboratory Member at Sloan Kettering Institute’s Cancer Biology and Genetics Program, and as an Assistant Professor of Comparative Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at Weill Cornell Medicine. She received her Veterinary and Master of Science degrees from the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and later was a Research Scholar at the University of Minnesota. In these roles, she led projects involving lectin-histochemistry, confocal microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy to study the pathogenesis of hepatotoxic, dermatological, and chronic respiratory diseases. Prior to joining the LCP as a Comparative and Genomic Pathology Fellow in 2020, she was an Anatomic Pathology Resident at Cornell University’s College of Veterinary Medicine and became a diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Pathologists (ACVP). She supports health monitoring, disease control, and clinical care programs, provides anatomic pathology services to investigative staff, and conducts baseline phenotyping studies in genetically engineered mice for investigators. Her current professional interests include CAR T cell immunotherapy, neuropathology, and toxicologic pathology.
