研究室紹介
Professor Ji Hoon Jung's research lab specializes in the historical and physiological study of traditional East Asian medicine, with a focus on Daoist health practices and their integration with modern biomedical science. The lab investigates historical medical texts from the Joseon Dynasty, particularly those detailing Daoist exercises and their therapeutic applications, while also exploring neurophysiological mechanisms such as calcium signaling in Purkinje cells. Additionally, the lab examines the historical development of oriental medicine during the Japanese colonial period and its interaction with Western medicine, contributing to the revival and academic foundation of traditional medical systems.

10This article is about the study on pictures of Daoist exercises described in Euibangyoochi- which is the largest book in Joseon Dynasty. Daoist exercises are the active exercises to prevent disease by training their body. In Euibangyoochi, there are lots of information of Daoistexercises. Specially, pictures of Daoist exercises are from ‘qúxiānhuórénxīnfāng’. There are movements of body, methods of respiration,tooth brushing, and hand clapping in Daoist exercises this book. On the other hand, th
This study performed to examine the genuineness of Kyung-Jong’s poison hypothesis which was the one of the biggest topic in thehistory of Joseon Dynasty. Kyung-Jong’s poison hypothesis is that Kyung-Jong who was the 20th king of the Joseon Dysansty waspoisoned by the next king Young-Jo who became the 21st king. This theory was hyphosized by Sim-Yoohyun and was widely known inthe 4th year of Young-jo through the revolt. Kyung-Jong suffered with severe diarrhea for 5 days which finally took his li
『East and West Medicine Research Society Monthly View』was published 7 times to revive and develope the Eastern medicine that was in downward trend with an "review the old and learn the new" attitude to unite the East and West medicine. This magazine was lead by the East and West Medicine Research Society and therefore an academic magazine. Its contents mostly consist of lecture type serials. This is because the purpose of the magazine was to reeducate physicians of the Chinese school or to educa
Cancer chemotherapy often triggers peripheral neuropathy in patients, leading to neuropathic pain in the extremities. While previous research has explored various nerve stimulation to alleviate chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), evidence on the effectiveness of noninvasive auricular vagus nerve stimulation (aVNS) remains uncertain. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of non-invasive aVNS in relieving CIPN pain. To induce CIPN in experimental animals, oxaliplatin was intr
『IlGumBang』is a medicine book by Kim Hong Je in 1928. It is based on 『Dong Eui Bo Gam』 but organizes its setup with his own view on medicine. He put importance in supplementing yang in treatment, and this kind of treatment follows the same path of the doctrinal faction of supplementing warmth which focuses on supplementing yang to manage yin. There are many treatment methods in 『IlGumBang』and this is a first, in medicine books. There is a distinguishing feature in using prescriptions. Things suc
There were four academic journals on oriental medicine, published in the era of early Japanese imperialism. Research into these journals has derived the conclusion that the academic trend at the time were, firstly, the interaction between western and eastern medicine, secondly, researches on 『Nai Kyung』, 『Sang Han Ron』and finally, promotion of development of oriental medicine by looking at the advantages of western medicine.
There were six academic journals on oriental medicine, published in the era of Japanese imperialism(1910-1945). Six academic journals are 『Han bang eui yak kyei 漢方醫藥界』, 『Dong eui bo gam 東醫報鑑』, 『Dong seo eui hak bo 東西醫學報』, 『Cho sun eui hak kyei 朝鮮醫學界』, 『Dong seo eui hak yeon ku hoi wol bo 東西醫學硏究會月報』, 『Dong yang eui yak 東洋醫藥』. These journals were published 33rd volume with sequence. Research into these journals has derived the conclusion that the academic trend at the time were, firstly, the inte
Ca2+ transients can be observed in the distal dendrites of Purkinje cells (PCs) despite their lack of action potential backpropagation. These Ca2+events in distal dendrites require specific patterns of PC firing, such as complex spikes (CS) or simple spikes (SS) of burst mode. Unlike CS, whichcan act directly on voltage-gated calcium channels in the dendrites through climbing fiber inputs, the condition that can produce the Ca2+ events indistal dendrites with burst mode SS is poorly understood.
Objective : Understanding the state of sanitation policy during the period of Japanese colonization of Korea. Method : Analyze ‘Slang on hygiene practices’ found in Korean medical journal 『ChoSunEuiHakGye』 that published in the period of Japanese colonization. And analyze articles that were same theme. Results : Japanese colonial policy regards the colony people’s old adage of health as outrageous things. Japanese colonial police demands don’t use old adage of health because it is obstruction to
We comprehensively investigated the wrinkles of a stiff layer covering a spherical void embedded in a rubber matrix after the void experienced inflation or contraction. We developed an easy experimental way to realize the inflation and contraction of the voids. The inflation took place in a void right beneath the surface of the matrix and the contraction happened in a void at the bottom of the rubber matrix. In the inflation, the wrinkle at the center of the deformation was random, and the patte
