Hyoung-gon Lee, PhD

Associate Professor

Dr. Lee's research is focused mainly on the understanding of the pathological mechanism(s) underlying the selective neurodegeneration in Alzheimer disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. Multiple molecular mechanisms identified from previous research in the lab which would lead to the development of the effective therapy. Among these identified mechanisms, ongoing research in the lab is focused on cell cycle re-entry in neurodegeneration and insulin signaling in Alzheimer disease.
