Bio-X Affiliated FacultyHow does neural activity in the human cortex create our sense of visual perception? The Gardner lab uses a combination of functional magnetic resonance imaging, computational modeling and analysis, and psychophysical measurements to link human perception to cortical brain activity. -

Juyong Brian Kim - Assistant Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
Bio-X Affiliated FacultyThe lifetime risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) is determined by the genetic makeup and exposure to modifiable risk factors. Dr. Juyong Brian Kim's research laboratory is interested in understanding how various environmental pollutants (eg. tobacco, e-cigarettes, air pollution and wildfire) interact with genes to affect the transcriptome, epigenome, and eventually disease phenotype of CVD. The current focus is to investigate how different toxic exposures can adversely remodel the vascular wall leading to increased cardiac events.
