Areas of Research


The specific fields of research are:

 Disease diagnostics

  • Study molecular mechanism of genetic-related diseases (SNPs, mtDNA, Y-chromosome...).
  • Propose potential diagnostic procedures for genetic-related diseases.

Genomics/Metagenomics

  • Construct database of genomic sequences of animals, plants, fungi and microorganisms.
  • Study bio-diversity by using metagenomics.

Molecular mechanisms

  • Study the role of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr) in dioxin-infected people.
  • Study mechanism of plant-derived active compounds on inflammation and cancers.
