Master’s degree | KyungHee University | South Korea
Prof. Jung-Woo Shin is an accomplished researcher in the field of biomedical and pharmaceutical sciences, currently completing his M.S. at the College of Pharmacy, KyungHee University , following a B.S. in Biomedical & Medical and Pharmaceutical Materials with a double major from Hallym University . His professional experience encompasses extensive work on the modulation of gut microbiota and the therapeutic potential of probiotics, including Lactococcus lactis, Bifidobacterium longum, and Lactobacillus plantarum, in alleviating gastrointestinal disorders, neuroinflammation, liver injury, fibrosis, and anxiety- and depression-like behaviors in preclinical mouse models. Prof. Shin’s research interests focus on the intersection of microbiology, immunology, neuropharmacology, and translational therapeutics, particularly in understanding the mechanisms by which gut microbiota and probiotic interventions influence systemic and neurological health via pathways such as NF-κB, AMPK signaling, and IL-6 regulation. His research skills include in vivo modeling, molecular biology techniques, microbiome analysis, histopathology, and behavioral assays, as reflected in his publications in high-impact journals such as Letters in Applied Microbiology, Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, and Microbes and Infection. Prof. Shin has been recognized for his contributions to the field through various academic awards and honors during his graduate and undergraduate studies. He continues to advance innovative probiotic-based therapeutic strategies with translational potential for human health, aiming to bridge basic research and clinical application. His work has garnered significant recognition, with 2,427 citations , 94 published works, and an h-index of 26, underscoring his impactful contribution to biomedical research and the scientific community.
