Dayoon Kwon

PhD in Epidemiology at UCLA

I am an environmental epidemiologist studying how the environment influences disease development using multi-omics data. 

My dissertation is on air pollution and Parkinson's disease, exploring gene-environment interactions and metabolomic profiles. 

I also investigated the relationship between the gut microbiome, diet, and Parkinson. Before joining UCLA, I worked at Columbia University, quantifying biological aging using DNA methylation and blood-chemistry data.
