Changwon Park , PhD
Assistant Professor of Pharmacology
The main interest of my lab is to study the biology of vascular endothelial cells. With mouse genetics and embryonic stem (ES) cells, we are trying to unravel molecular mechanisms governing 1) the generation/differentiation of endothelial cell (progenitors) in developing embryos and 2) the process of neovascularization in pathophysiologic conditions. We are also interested in endothelial cell generation from human ES or iPS cells.
