Biography
Dr.  Jeong Park is currently working as a Senior Lecturer in Mammalian Biochemistry in the Department of  Fundamental Sciences, Massey univesity , Newzealand. His research interests includes In vitro epigenetic studies in cell free system. He is serving as an editorial member and reviewer of several international reputed journals. Dr.  Jeong Park is the member of many international affiliations. He has successfully completed his Administrative responsibilities. He has authored of many research articles/books related to In vitro epigenetic studies in cell free system.
Research Interest
His expertise includes basic cancer biology, protein biochemistry and epigenetic gene regulation. He is interested in DNA damage response focusing on the p53 tumor suppressor protein whose mutations or mis-regulations are major triggers in almost every form of human cancers. His group currently investigates p53-dependent eukaryotic gene regulation, post-translational modifications, and DNA damage-mediated signal transduction pathways. By combining tissue culture system with powerful biochemistry tools, His research group is looking for molecular targets to sensitize cancer cells to current chemo- and radio-therapy.
