Thararat Yimcharoen
(a.k.a. Gaem-Gaem)
Background
I am Thararat Yimcharoen. Call me Gaem Gaem. I graduated from the Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Naresuan University, Phitsanulok, and now I’m a graduate student in the Biochemistry department, Faculty of Medicine, Chiang Mai University. I am interested in biochemical research, which is why I chose to study at this university. Including to learn more about the subject of biochemistry.
Research Interests
My research fields of interest is in hematology research, such as thalassemia. It is a genetic disorder that is very common in Thailand. An interesting area of research will be the study of bioactive compounds in natural plants for the treatment of beta-thalassemia, by stimulating the expression of gamma globin to increase fetal hemoglobin (Hemoglobin F).

Panya Wongsathan
(a.k.a. Champ)
Background
I graduated from Chiang Mai University with a degree in Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and Biochemical Technology. Now I’m a graduate student in the Biochemistry department, Faculty of Medicine, Chiang Mai University. I want to learn about biochemistry involved in the human body at the molecular level, including the mechanisms of its occurrence and treatment.
Research Interests
I am interested in cancer because cancer is currently considered a disease that is very difficult to treat, if not detected in time. Currently available treatments are considered delayed detection. Therefore, I would like to continue studying in the aforementioned field in order to increase my knowledge and apply the knowledge gained to innovate and improve treatment.
I am also interested in inflammatory diseases, especially osteoarthritis, which is currently an incurable disease (treatment can only slow it down). It is therefore a challenge to invent an effective treatment to slow down the onset of the disease. My ongoing research of interest is in the use of limonin, which has previously been reported to slow the progression of osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is activated through IL-1β induced inflammation, but thus far, the induction through TNF-α induced pathway has not been studied (especially in chondrocytes).
