Research Area




We are interested in understanding the DNA repair mechanism in the germline. Especially, we have focused on investigating the epigenetic regulation of DNA damage response and repair. We use a microscopic size nematode C. elegans and mammalian cells to study epigenetic control of DNA repair mechanism. 1. The role of conserved Epigenetic regulators in DNA repair and damage response. 2.The role of novel and conserved gene of DNA repair and damage response.

We are recuiting hard working students.Students interested in working in Genetics or Molecular biology in my lab, send an E-mail orvisit my lab. http://KimLab.website2.me/
