Department of Nutritional Science & Food Management/ Graduate Program in System Health and Engineering
Dr. Yoon Jung Park is a Professor at the Department of Nutritional Science and Food Management, College of Health Science, where she is heading the Epigenetics lab. She got her Ph.D. from the Division of Nutritional Sciences at Cornell University (Dr. Paul Soloway Lab), followed by a postdoctoral training at the German Cancer Research Center in Heidelberg (Dr. Christoph Plass lab), with the support of a Roman Herzog Research Fellowship. Her research is focused on the mechanisms by which environmental factors such as diets epigenetically influence cells, tissues, or organisms and by which the epigenetic changes are transmitted to subsequent generations using multiomics data, including genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics, metabolomics, and microbiome analysis. Through years of international research experiences, she maintains close foreign collaborations. She has published in high-ranking journals, including Nature Medicine, EMBO Molecular Medicine, PLoS Genetics, and Molecular Cell. Current projects are the followings: 1) Epigenetic mechanisms underlying inheritance of metabolic imprinting, 2) Effects of macronutrients on Circadian clock regulation, and 3) Omics analysis on diabetes and cancer to identify biomarkers.
