Research summary
AI-generated

Kwang Joo Kwak's research focuses on extracellular vesicles (tiny particles released by cells that carry molecular cargo like microRNAs) and how their contents relate to disease and drug resistance. Work spans techniques for detecting and analyzing these vesicles as well as studies of cancer cell signaling pathways, such as those involved in resistance to targeted cancer therapies like gefitinib. The research combines molecular biology, biosensing methods, and cancer biology approaches.
