About

Hye Ryung Jung is a pioneering figure in lipidomics, whose work has fundamentally advanced the quantitative analysis of complex lipid networks. Her key research areas encompass high-throughput molecular lipidomics, mass spectrometry-based metabolomics, and the development of novel analytical platforms for biomedical applications. Jung’s most significant contribution is her seminal 2011 paper, "High throughput quantitative molecular lipidomics," which has garnered 173 citations and established a gold-standard methodology for the rapid, accurate profiling of lipid species. This work introduced robust protocols for sample preparation, data acquisition, and quantification, enabling researchers to map lipid dynamics in health and disease with unprecedented precision. By bridging analytical chemistry and systems biology, Jung’s innovations have empowered studies on metabolic disorders, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. Her impact is reflected in the widespread adoption of her methods, which have become foundational in lipidomics laboratories worldwide. Beyond her technical achievements, Jung is recognized for mentoring a new generation of scientists and fostering interdisciplinary collaborations that continue to push the boundaries of molecular lipid research.
