Jin Gyeom Kim is currently enrolled in an integrated M.S.–Ph.D. program in Food and Nutrition from Chungnam National University. During his undergraduate studies, he actively participated in laboratory research focusing on the relationship between the gut microbiome, inflammation, and neurodegenerative diseases. His work included involvement in studies using mouse models such as IL-10 knockout mice and techniques like fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), behavioral assessments, and antioxidant activity analysis of plant extracts. He is particularly interested in the role of gut-derived metabolites in brain health and inflammation. Jin Gyeom Kim aims to pursue graduate studies to further explore the intersection of nutrition, microbiome, and neuroimmunology.
