Welcome to the Oh Lab

Exploring GPCR biology to uncover new insights into metabolism.

At the Oh Lab, we explore G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling to advance understanding of metabolic regulation, aiming to translate basic discoveries into meaningful gains for metabolic health.

Dayoung profile

Dayoung Oh, Ph.D.

Associate Professor

Principal Investigator

Touchstone Diabetes Center/Dept. of Internal Medicine

 

Dr. Dayoung Oh is originally from South Korea and holds a doctoral degree in molecular endocrinology. She completed her postdoctoral training at Korea University in the laboratory of Dr. Jae Young Seong, and later at the University of California, San Diego under the mentorship of Dr. Jerrold Olefsky.

Dr. Oh’s research centers on the intricate signaling pathways of G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) and their pathophysiological roles in metabolic regulation. Her work aims to unravel how GPCRs influence processes such as adipose tissue function, inflammation, energy homeostasis, and cardiometabolic disease.
