Research Interest
1. The genetic and epigenetic mechanisms of retinal neurodegeneration diseases and the role of noncoding RNAs in the neurogenesis during brain and eye development. 2. The effect of endogenous and exogenous aldehyde such as formaldehyde, glycolaldehyde and ribose on the structure-function of neural proteins (Tau protein, amyloid-beta and alpha-synuclein) which are related with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. 3. The effects of hypogeomagnetic field, extremely weak or zero magnetic fields, on brain function and development and mechanisms of biomagnetosensation.
