He received his BS degree in Molecular Biology at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) in 1990 and MS degree in 1992. Then, he joined the biotech branch of LG Chem LTD, South Korea before his PhD education in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Indiana University School of Medicine and postdoctoral fellowship training at Stanford University. Before joining University of Michigan, he was the section head of Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics at Purdue University and the program leader at the Purdue Institute of Inflammation, Immunology and Infectious Diseases. His research has been supported by grants from NIH, DOD, National Multiple Sclerosis Foundation, Michael J Fox Foundation, American Heart Association, Crohn's and Colitis Foundation, and Eli and Edythe Broad Foundation. He has served many journals as an associate editor or editorial board member. He was the president for the Association of Korean Immunologists in America (AKIA). He received numerous awards including Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Fellow and Special Fellow Awards, Sydney Kimmel Scholar Award, University Scholar Award, Research Excellence Award, Cancer Center Challenge Award, and Kenneth and Judy Betz Family Endowed Professorship. His research group studies the differentiation, migration and effector functions of immune cells and how these immune cells are regulated by vitamins, nuclear receptor ligands, and microbial metabolites.
