Mr Sang-Hyuck Lee
NIHR BRC BioResource Laboratory & KCL Genomics Manager
Biography
Mr Sang-Hyuck joined NIHR BRC BioResource lab in SGDP in 2013 after completing his MSc in Neuroscience at King's College London. In his role, he has extensively applied his molecular biology skills to process a large number of samples on the high-throughput Illumina genotyping and methylation pipeline. Additionally, he has experience in quality control of raw data, imputation and GWAS analysis, and long-read nanopore sequencing.
He has been involved in the Genetic Links to Anxiety and Depression(GLAD) and Eating Disorders Genetics Initiative(EDGI) studies, where he played a key role in the QC of genotyping data. Since 2022, he has served as the lab manager for NIHR BRC BioResource Laboratory & KCL Genomics. Also, he continues to be involved in cutting-edge research in the field of Eating Disorders as a part-time PhD student at King's College London while also serving as one of the primary analysts in the Psychiatric Consortium Eating Disorder(PGCED) group for the freeze 3 data.
