Young-Mi Go, PhD
Assistant Professor, School of Medicine
Emory University, USA
Dr YoungMi Go received PhD in Pathology from the University of Alabama at Birmingham She joined the Department of Biochemistry in the Emory University Atlanta GA for her postdoctoral training Currently she is Assistant Professor in the Department of Medicine Division of Pulmonary Allergy and Critical Care Medicine in the Emory University She has authored 26 peer reviewed research articles 2 book chapters and 5 reviews
During her doctoral study she identified the signaling mechanisms of laminar shear stress-protected vascular disease, atherosclerosis development. During her first post-doctoral training at UAB, her research focused on defining mechanisms for oxidized low density lipoprotein-stimulated early event of atherosclerosis. Her research focused on investigating thiol/disulfide redox system and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species-controlled signaling mechanisms in association with atherosclerosis development. During the last several years she has developed a new technique for redox proteomics by redox ICAT analysis combined with mass spectrometry, which identifies redox-sensitive proteins and their associated mechanisms. Her current research focuses on identification of extracellular redox-regulated endothelial cellular function by examining mechanisms implicated in cardiovascular diseases
