Research focus
Our laboratory’s mission is to apply knowledge drawn from using model system to understand the molecular pathology of diseases as well as molecular mechanisms of drug treatment. The ultimate goal is to search for novel therapeutic strategies in various areas including
- Targeted therapy for genetic diseases
- Synergistic drugs for malaria
- Novel anti-cancer agents
- Novel anti-aging compounds
