Research summary
AI-generated

Hyun Cheol Roh studies how fat (adipose) tissue works in metabolism and disease, focusing on the molecular signals and gene-regulation processes that control fat cell identity, inflammation, and insulin resistance in conditions like obesity. The research combines cell biology, epigenetics (how genes are switched on and off), and model organisms such as C. elegans to understand metabolic health. Recent work also explores histone turnover and cellular responses to nutritional states like starvation.
