Laboratory of Stem Cell Aging and Cancer

Ji-Hye Paik, PhD, Principal Investigator

We aim to understand the homeostatic mechanism of adult stem cells that is intimately linked to aging and cancer, with a hope to apply these principles for regenerative and cancer therapeutics. We employ multi-disciplinary approaches including mouse models, cell and molecular biology, metabolomics and genomics. We currently pursue PI3K-Akt-FoxO-mediated homeostatic pathway and ZNF365-dependent genomic stability.
