TITLE:  Searching for the Molecular Mechanism, Novel Drug, and Biomarker in Alcoholism

PRESENTER:  Doo-Sup Choi, Ph.D.

INTRODUCTION:
Doo-Sup Choi is a molecular biologist and neuroscientist. He graduated from the Department of Biochemistry at Yonsei University in Seoul, Korea with BS (1988) and MS (1990). Dr. Choi completed his Ph.D. at the Louis Pasteur University in Strasbourg, France in 1997. He performed a two-year postdoctoral research in the field of neuropharmacology of addiction (1997-1998) in the Department of Biopharmaceutical Sciences at University of California San Francisco (UCSF). Following that, he joined the Ernest Gallo Clinic and Research Center and the Department of Neurology at UCSF as a staff research scientist (1999-2004) and then a junior faculty member (2004-2005). He joined the College of Medicine, Mayo Clinic in 2005 and has established an innovative and cutting-edge research program by combining mouse genetics, behaviors, proteomics, neurochemistry, and imaging. His main research focuses on adenosine and glutamate signaling in neuron-glia interaction and its implication in alcoholism.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

• Understand the importance of molecular mechanisms underlying alcoholism for clinical practice and novel medications.
• Recognize the necessity of biomarkers toward precision medicine in psychiatric disorders.
