Research Areas:

Our laboratory has established the connection between physiology and pharmaceutics, leading to the identification of new therapeutic targets for cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. We employ advanced whole-body imaging techniques to identify significant tissue areas. Using single-cell omics techniques, we aim to discover new targets for specific disease models.

Current Projects:

(1) Developing New Whole-body Clearing Techniques for in vivo application and spatial omics. (2) development of new targeted formulations for cancer or neurodegenerative disease. (3) Mapping between the pharmacology and physiological systems (nervous or immune Systems) in some diseases, and deep learning analysis.

Importance of Interdisciplinary Research:

As a whole team, we strongly believe that interdisciplinary research is at the core of our lab. Therefore, we welcome individuals with backgrounds in chemistry, pharmacy, biology, and computer science, as their expertise helps drive cutting-edge research.
