Bioinformatician | Sehwan Chun – uncovering transformative insights from biological data.

With eight years of experience in bioinformatics and biostatistics, I began my career as an alternative-military researcher at CorestemChemOn Co., Ltd. I integrate multi-omics datasets to evaluate the efficacy of cell-based therapies for refractory diseases and support clinical statistics and trial design.
