Biography

 

Dr. Sukho Lee, a professor in the Department of Counseling, Health, and Kinesiology at Texas A&M University-San Antonio, earned a Ph.D. in Exercise Physiology from The University of Texas at Austin in 2002. He also earned a B.S. and M.S. at Seoul National University. Before joining TAMU-SA in August 2013, Dr. Lee was an associate professor at Texas A&M International University for 10 years and a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Pennsylvania Medical School.

Dr. Lee teaches undergraduate and graduates courses in Exercise Science. His research interests include 1) supplementation on exercise performance, preventions and/or treatments for diabetes and obesity using exercise and dietary interventions as well as mechanisms of skeletal muscle plasticity by different interventions, including resistance training, hind limb suspension, casting model, and oriental medicine.

Dr. Lee is a founding member of KUSAPS: Korea United State Applied Physiological Society (www.appliedphysiology.org) and serves as an editorial board member for several peer review journals (International Journal of Exercise Science, Journal of Exercise Nutrition & Biochemistry, International Journal of Applied Sports Sciences, Kinesiology, and Journal of Lifestyle Medicine).
