My PREVENT-WIN trial has influenced international vitamin D guidelines for prediabetes prevention.
Core Expertise: My research addresses metabolic disorders, obesity, diabetes, NAFLD, Vitamin D Deficiency, sleep apnea, and aging in Asian populations, with focus on sleep-metabolism interactions, telomere biology, nutritional interventions, and precision medicine approaches.
Institutional Impact: I established and direct polysomnography, body composition, and molecular biology laboratories, managing teams of 50+ professionals. My community health programs have screened over 200,000 individuals across diverse populations.
Academic Service: Editorial Board member (PLOS ONE, Clinical Medicine and Research), Associate Editor (Frontiers in Medicine - Pulmonary Medicine), and reviewer for multiple high-impact journals.
