Young Joo Lee

Young Joo Lee is a Professor in the Department of Integrative Bioscience and Biotechnology at Sejong University, with ongoing research since 2000. Their work bridges molecular biology and pharmacology to investigate estrogen receptor interactions, hypoxia pathways, and ginseng's physiological effects.

• Education:
  • B.A., Seoul National University (1991)
  • Ph.D., University of Wisconsin-Madison (1995)

Research Interests focus on:

• Phytoestrogen screening and its role in hormonal diseases
• Estrogen receptor cross-talk with hypoxia and Hippo signaling in cancer progression
• Development of personalized risk assessment platforms for consumer chemicals
• Ginseng's impact on brain plasticity and menopausal health

Recent Publications highlight interdisciplinary trends spanning breast cancer genomics, computational biology, neuroplasticity, and endocrine pharmacology.

Professional Experience includes postdoctoral work at Seoul National University (1996) and Harvard Medical School (1997-1998), followed by research at Viromed (1998-2000) before joining Sejong University.
