Joon Park studies how natural plant-derived compounds and cellular signaling pathways affect inflammation, pain, and disease processes. Much of the work examines how extracts from various plants influence microglial activation (immune cells in the brain), pain responses, gut disorders, and cancer cells at the molecular level. Additional projects explore cell signaling in contexts such as muscle atrophy, endothelial cell function, and ion channel activity.
