[Exploration] Primate 3: Key Databases for Aging Biology
Primates serve as an invaluable paradigm for understanding the complexities of human aging. Their...
Hi, I'm Keun Hong, an evolutionary cancer biologist.
My research integrates an evolutionary perspective with comparative multi-omics to investigate how long-lived species maintain their exceptional genome and epigenome stability, a critical defense against cancer and aging.
My ultimate goal is to uncover the cross-species mechanisms driving this resistance and translate these insights into clinically innovative solutions for human health.
