At the Natural Products Laboratory (NPL) at Sejong University, we are dedicated to exploring the chemical diversity of nature. Our research focuses on the discovery, characterization, and functional analysis of bioactive natural compounds derived from medicinal plants, xerophytes, fungi, and more.

By integrating advanced analytical techniques such as metabolomics, mass spectrometry, and molecular networking, our lab aims to uncover novel secondary metabolites with therapeutic, nutritional, and industrial potential. Our mission is to contribute natural product chemistry to drug discovery, functional materials, and sustainable innovations.

We collaborate globally across disciplines—from chemistry and biology to biotechnology—advancing the frontiers of natural product research.
