Jung-Hyun Kim, Ph.D.

I am a Senior Researcher and Principal Investigator at the Research Institute of the National Cancer Center, South Korea. I earned my Ph.D. in Biomedical Science and Technology from Konkuk University, where my doctoral research focused on mitochondrial apoptosis and MAPK signaling regulated by Bcl-2 family proteins.

I subsequently completed postdoctoral training and held research associate positions at the Mitchell Cancer Institute, University of South Alabama, and the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, where I expanded my expertise in cancer biology and molecular regulatory mechanisms.

My research centers on oncogenic RNA splicing and epigenetic regulation associated with treatment resistance in cancer and genetic diseases. I have authored numerous high-impact publications in journals including Nature Communications, Journal of Clinical Investigation, Blood, and Molecular Cell, contributing to the understanding of SON- and HMGA1-mediated transcriptional and splicing networks in tumorigenesis.
