I am a developmental and stem cell biologist with background in epithelial regeneration, cell plasticity, and organoid technologies. I earned my Ph.D. in 2023 from Yonsei University, College of Dentistry (Seoul, South Korea), where I investigated the regenerative mechanisms of the mouse circumvallate papilla following severe injury.
