Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Kyu-Young Lee"
- Kyu-Young Lee's research primarily focuses on understanding the genetic, clinical, and biological underpinnings of psychiatric disorders, particularly schizophrenia and major depressive disorder, through various innovative methodologies including genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and proteomic analyses.
- Recent studies led by Lee demonstrate significant findings, such as identifying common genetic variants associated with schizophrenia in the Korean population, comparing the efficacy and safety of lurasidone versus quetiapine for treating schizophrenia, and developing objective models to discriminate between major psychiatric disorders using plasma proteomes.
- Lee's work also explores the overlap between autistic features and psychosis, evaluates risk factors for full recovery in early-stage psychosis, and investigates potential biomarkers for major depressive disorder, highlighting the importance of early intervention and tailored treatment approaches.
