- Research Topics : Discovering for novel therapeutic strategies
Our laboratory’s mission is to apply knowledge drawn from using a model system to understand the molecular pathology of diseases as well as molecular mechanisms of drug treatment. The ultimate goal is to search for novel therapeutic strategies in various areas.
- Scopes of the research:
– Targeted therapy for genetic diseases
– New anti-cancer agents
– Synergistic drugs for malaria
– New anti-aging compounds

- Research topic : Pathophysiology of blood cells in thalassemia
Thalassemia, defect of globin synthesis leads to anemia and other complications such as iron overload, cellular oxidative stress, thrombosis and abnormal immunity. Researcher and team are investigating the mechanisms of pathophysiology in thalassemia, biomarkers for disease progressive and novel therapeutics.
- Scopes of the research:
– Coagulation and inflammation pathways
– Immunity to infection
– Oxidative stress and cell injury
– Biomarkers for disease severity
– Discovery for novel alternative treatments
