研究興趣

Research areas include human genetics, cancer genomics, and microbial genomics. My laboratory has applied genetic and genomic approach to identify genes associated with two inherited diseases: osteonecrosis of the femoral head and familial primary cutaneous amyloidosis. The discovery of the disease-causing mutations can help us better understand the pathogenesis of the genetic disorders, the knowledge of which should facilitate the development of improved practices for preventing and managing the inherited disorders. Using high-throughput genotyping, sequencing, and microarray methods, we have investigated the genetic basis of liver cancer and lung cancer. Also, we have combined genomic analysis with cell culture and animal models to develop rational treatment based on individual genetic makeup to achieve personalized medicine. For the study of microbiology, we have conducted whole-genome sequencing on bacterial pathogens, including Vibrio vulnificus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Acinetobacter baumannii. The sequence information can help understand the evolution of microbial organisms and the molecular basis of bacterial virulence, antimicrobial resistance, and their transmission.
