TaejoonLab (Functional Genomics Lab)
Functional Genomics | Proteomics | Model Organism
We studies the function of human genes involved in diseases, based on their deep homology in multiple organisms. By utilizing large-scale functional genomic data in multiple organisms, we computationally infer the role of uncharacterized genes (or novel function of already characterized genes) in phenotype that we are interested in. By integrating engineering perspectives, we also develop novel experimental platform to validate our predictions in model organisms.
