The Ryoo Lab at NYU Langone is a research group dedicated to studying how metazoan cells adapt and respond to stress, with a particular focus on the mechanisms underlying cellular health and dysfunction. They investigate the impact of stress on cellular function, aging, and disease, aiming to uncover strategies to prevent dysfunction and delay aging.

With a specific interest in stress caused by misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and amino acids, the Ryoo Lab utilizes Drosophila embryonic cells to gain insights into the cellular stress response. Their research aims to enhance our understanding of cellular mechanisms and contribute to the development of potential therapeutic interventions for degenerative diseases.
