Research Interests:
Their research interests are the molecular mechanisms in cellular stress responses including inflammation and inflammation related diseases. Specifically, they are interested in:
1.The relationship between cellular stress responses and cell differentiation, senescence and death.
2.The relationship between cellular stress responses and malignancy.
3.The relationship between cellular stress responses and metabolic pathways.
4.The functions of cellular stress response pathways in septic shock, atherosclerosis, colitis and other inflammation related disease.
