Developmental Disorders and Toxicology
Research Interests
Our group uses in vivo and in vitro model to understand the developmental disease. One of our focuses is the craniofacial malformation. Development of the proper facial structure is a complex process that requires tight regulation on various signaling molecules. Gene mutation is known to cause cleft lip and/or palate (CL/ CLP). By understanding the pathogenesis of the disease, potential gene therapy and small molecule will be identified for treatment. Other major research themes includes:
1. Disease model and Mechanism
2. Function of Deubiquitinase
3. Osmoregulation
4. Developmental Toxicity
