PROGRAMME

Dr Moon is a Group Leader in the Department of Oncology at the University of Oxford, with a keen interest in understanding how hypoxia drives tumour progression, including invasion, metastasis, and metabolism through key pathways. With extensive training in Radiation Oncology from Duke University and Stanford University (USA), Dr Moon a robust background in tumour hypoxia, tumour progression, and radiation biology. As a junior principal investigator and co-investigator, she is actively involved in several projects on radiation-induced ferroptosis, the normal tissue-sparing effects of FLASH radiation, and AXL-mediated drug resistance in non-small cell lung cancer, collaborating with investigators in the USA, United Kingdom, and South Korea. 

Yeongmi Kim is currently a professor in the department of Medical & Health Technology, MCI, Austria. Her principal research interests are sensory-motor rehabilitation, assistive technology, medical robotics, human computer interaction, and haptic feedback interfaces. She obtained her PhD in Mechatronics from GIST in 2010 and worked as a postdoctoral Researcher, research associate at ETH Zurich at the Rehabilitation Engineering Lab.  

Jae-Eun Lee is a dedicated research scientist specializing in immunology, with extensive experience in both academia and industry. She is currently a Scientist at Yellowstone Biosciences in Oxford, UK, where she plays a key role in developing and optimizing safety cell-based assays for AML TCR bispecific candidates. Her expertise spans T-cell biology, assay development, and automation, contributing to critical advancements in preclinical research, including IND and CTA-enabling studies.

Beyond her scientific role, Jae-Eun is the founder of KULSA, a networking platform dedicated to connecting Koreans in the UK who are studying or working in the life sciences field. Through this initiative, she fosters collaboration, mentorship, and professional growth within the community.
