박윤정 교수는 신산업융합대학 식품영양학과 교수로 NutriEpigenomics(대사후성유전학) 연구실을 이끌고 있다. 미국 코넬대학 영양학 대학원에서 ‘Critical Elements in the Control of Epigenetic Patterns’ 에 관한 연구로 박사학위를 받았으며, 이후 독일암센터에서 Roman Herzog 장학금을 Humboldt 재단으로 부터 지원받으며 박사후과정 동안 만성질병의 후성유전적 기전과 바이오마커에 대해 연구를 진행하였다. 현재 genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics를 포함한 다중오믹스 분석을 활용하여, 영양소나 식품성분이 대사조절에 미치는 영향과 이러한 변화가 어떻게 다음 세대로 전달되는지 연구하는데 역점을 두고 있다. 또한 후성유전적 기전을 매개로 한 생체시계 조절에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 대사질환이나 노화의 가역적 변화 가능성을 탐색하고 있다. 현재까지 <Nature Medicine>, <Molecular Cell>, <Molecular Metabolism> 등 권위지를 비롯한 SCI 급 국제학술지에 논문을 다수 발표했으며, 『Epigenetics and Human Health』,『Personalized Epigenetics』 등의 저서에 저자로 참여하였다. 독일암센터 등 선도적 연구기관들과 국제 공동연구를 진행하고 있다.
