Life Sciences/Department of Life Science
Dr. Eok-Soo Oh, Professor at the department of life sciences and Plural professor in Scranton College, received his Ph.D. degree in cell biology from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. He completed postdoctoral training at the Harvard Medical School and joined the faculty at Ewha Womans University in 1999. Dr. Oh's research program focuses on ‘Oncogenic signaling networks in tumor microenvironment’ and ‘Diagnosis and treatment of cancer’. He has published approximately 90 papers in related SCI journals and actively involved in diverse academic activities both domestically and internationally.
