Jin Woo Kim is a researcher at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, specializing in mammalian retinal development. His work explores the molecular mechanisms underlying retinal degeneration and the role of genetic factors in eye development. Kim's research integrates molecular biology, genetics, and cell signaling to understand how genes like Vax, Otx2, and PTEN regulate retinal cell fate and function. His studies also examine the interactions between signaling pathways, such as Notch, Hippo, and PI3K–PTEN, in the context of retinal and systemic diseases. Kim's contributions highlight the importance of transcription factors and tumor suppressors in maintaining retinal homeostasis and preventing degenerative conditions.
