Postdoctoral Fellow
Hyun Jin did his PhD at Catholic University in South Korea on connections between microRNAs and cancer. While in the Buratowski lab, he was supported by a fellowship from the Korea National Research Foundation. His work involved developing new mass spectrometry methods to analyze patterns of CTD phosphorylation, and how the CTD interacts with the histone H3K4 methyltransferase Set1/COMPASS. He's now working for Korean biopharma company LegoChem Biosciences developing anti-cancer drugs that target transcription.
