Jun-Hee Kim
I am a neuroimaging engineer, mainly focused on the mechanisms of the brain waste clearance system using advanced quantitative MRI. By developing and optimizing novel MR imaging techniques, my goal is (1) to establish clinically viable, personalized diagnostic tools for the early detection and (2) identification of therapeutic targets of neurodegenerative diseases.
