Dr. Han has expertise in transposable element-related genomic instability and genetic variation. His laboratory is focusing on the identification and characterization of transposable element (i.e., retrotransposon) involved in genomic instability. Currently using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technique, he investigates that transcriptional activity of the retrotransposons can be specifically controlled by the host and may play unrecognized roles in regeneration in animal models and/or patients with lesions in the central/peripheral nervous and musculoskeletal system. In addition, he has been the director of DKU-Theragene institute for NGS analysis (DTiNa) since 2012. He supports various NGS researches including RNA-sequencing, exome sequencing, and epigenome sequencing. DTiNa supports NGS education and experiments for researchers in local biomedical industries and institutes. His bioinformatic expertise is important for basic approaches in transitional biomedical research.
