Bomi Lee
Assistant Professor of Pediatrics (Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy lab is dedicated to unraveling the complexities of the immune microenvironment and its role in the pathogenesis of pancreatic diseases, such as pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. By leveraging cutting-edge technology, innovative experimental and genetic animal models, as well as human specimens from donors, we aim to identify novel immune markers and potential therapeutic targets. Our goal is to advance the understanding of immune cells and their contributions to these diseases and to transl
