 Youngpil Kim, Ph.D. Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford Dept. of Radiology Stanford School of Medicine Lucas Expansion, P089 1201 Welch Road Stanford, CA 94305-5484 E-mail: ypkim@stanford.edu Youngpil prefers to be called "Pil." Research Project In vitro and in vivo detection of cancer-related enzyme activity using nanoparticles, and BRET-based detection of post-translationally modifying enzymes. I am focusing on development of nanoprobes to detect disease biomarkers in vitro and in vivo with high sensitivity and specificity, especially based on bioluminescence or bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET). By combining nanoparticles with specific biomolecules, the application will be extended to many biological fields including cancer diagnosis, molecular imaging, and multiplex targeting.
