Welcome to the Park Lab
Park Lab photo 2025 Dr. Park's research focuses on developing novel, noninvasive MR imaging approaches to characterize in vivo metabolism and function in both normal physiology and disease. We integrate hyperpolarized 13C/15N MR spectroscopic imaging, advanced metabolic MRI techniques, and isotopomer and mass spectrometry analyses to study metabolic processes across major organ systems. A central goal is the clinical translation of stable isotope-labeled imaging agents to enable quantitative, mechanism-driven assessment of human metabolism.
