Dr. Ki-Young Lee was a Visiting Assistant Professor from Kunsan National University, South Korea. Dr. Lee joined the Reprogramming team in February 2004. Previous to joining the CRL team, Dr. Lee worked on Zebrafish cloning as a Postdoctoral researcher in Department of Molecular, Cell & Developmental Biology, UCLA for two months, and also worked in the same school as a Visiting Assistant Professor on the Zebrafish cloning from 2002-2004.

Dr. Lee received his Ph.D. in 2001 from the Animal Molecular Genetics Lab, Seoul National University, South Korea. His dissertation study was on “The Production of Transgenic Cloned Zebrafish by Nuclear Transfer from Long-term Cultured Somatic Cells.”

While at the Medical College of Georgia as a Predoctoral Fellow he established the Nuclear Transfer method in Zebrafish.

Dr. Lee is currently an Assistant Professor, Faculty of Marine Life Science in the College of Ocean Science & Technology at Kunsan National University in Kunsan, Jeollabuk-do, Korea.
