Our lab uses patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells as a disease modelling, molecular genetics, biochemical, and genome editing methodologies to understand molecular and cellular basis of the genetic disease. Ultimately, our lab aims to discovery a new drug targets and develop new treatment strategies for the disease.
