We research the involvement of post-translational modifications (such as ubiquitination, glycosylation) in glycogen biology and its role in glycogen metabolism related neurological and neuromuscular diseases. We also aim to develop appropriate therapies against these diseases using cutting-edge technologies such as gene therapy.

Our work advocates for the wider adoption of alteplase, antiplatelet therapy in ischemic stroke, secondary stroke prevention, off-label guidelines for those with acute ischemic stroke, and more.

The Wang (Jui-Kai) Lab is dedicated to advancing the intersection of ophthalmology, image processing, and artificial intelligence.

The Sweat Lab studies how perturbations in cardiac gene expression result in arrhythmias, with a focus on atrial fibrillation. We apply single-cell multiomics and epigenetics approaches to gain insight into mechanisms of arrhythmia and potential new treatment approaches231`
