Bio myself

I received my M.S. in Bio-Medical Engineering at Immunology laboratory and my Ph.D in  Human Genetics at Neurobiology laboratory from Korea University. I received my B.A and B.S. in Psychology and Life Science from Korea University. I was a faculty as a research professor in Department of Anatomy, Medical School of Korea University before starting my journey abroad the United States in 2010. I was further trained and worked at National Eye Institute of National Institute of Health, Nano-Medicine and Wilmer Eye Institute of Johns Hopkins University and Pharmaceutics, School of Pharmacy, Virginia Commonwealth University. I studied autoimmune diseases and immune tolerance, and brain anatomy and developing brain focusing on protein molecules, CD1d (Non-classical MHC) and Protocadherins (Non-clustered) during my M.S. and Ph.D. programs. Since 2010, I have been in the field of retina, especially photoreceptor synapse development and retina degeneration. I had worked as a scientist and project manager at Research & Development and early manufacturing development of Biotech companies for the last 4 years . I recently began studying Nursing at MiraCosta College in spring 2024. I do not know what is my next journey in my life, stepping on this nursing program. Previously, I worked as a volunteer counsellor at Chun-Chon Welfare Center, Youth Center, Psychology Student Association and Disabled clubs during my undergraduate and graduate. It was not easy for me to have two different career pathways of clinical psychology and basic science. I chose free programs that provided full scholorship and stipend supports. That was totally good for me to learn New and have experiences as a scientist. I have enjoyed my learning so far, but I hope to do something else and help more others if I have chances. I have broad interests from eating and health, illness, near-death, human history, literature, biology, genetics, nature, gardening, crochet, new learning, any kinds of data and etc. I LOVE my family above anything, and SIMPLE and SLOW life. April 2024
