Dr. Seog Bae OH’s work has focused on understanding of molecular and cellular mechanisms of physiological nociception, and how their changes transit to chronic pain in pathological conditions. He has been studying these topics through multidisciplinary approaches- from gene to behavior, and from molecular level to systemic level, and recently extending to the cognitive level. More specifically, his research goal is to better understand role of neuro-immune interaction in the peripheral neuropathy and the pathophysiology of trigeminal pain, and thereby to find a novel and mechanism-oriented therapeutics for targeting intractable chronic pain conditions.
