Our research group is interested in exploring the dynamics of nutrients and phytochemicals in the body, which is essential for understanding their functions. Our current research focuses on the bioavailability, pharmacokinetics, and biological activities of micronutrients and phytochemicals, especially those associated with neonatal development, adipose tissue metabolism, or glucose homeostasis. Using in vivo and in vitro models, we investigate how various physiological or diseased states affect the pharmacokinetics and/or bioactivities; also we explore techniques, such as nano-encapsulation, that may improve the bioavailability and/or optimize the bioactivities.
