Sohyon Lee is an Assistant Professor at Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (KAIST), specializing in Systems Biology, Neurodevelopment, Brain tumors, Pharmacoscopy, and Phenomics. Their research focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental processes and their disruption in brain tumors. Lee's work explores the role of kinase pathways, such as the LKB1-NUAK1 pathway, in axon branching and mitochondrial dynamics. They also investigate repurposable neuroactive drugs for glioblastoma treatment, emphasizing the Siglec–sialic acid axis and TRPV2 modulation. Additionally, Lee contributes to high-throughput drug screening and functional precision medicine in neuro-oncology, leveraging computational and experimental approaches to decode cellular state heterogeneity and improve therapeutic strategies.
