Seunghee Cha, DDS, PhD, is a Professor of Oral & Maxillofacial Diagnostic Sciences at the University of Florida College of Dentistry. Dr. Cha is actively involved in basic and clinical science research while attending patients and serving in leadership roles for various international scientific communities. She was the former President of the Salivary Research Group of the American/International Association for Dental Research and currently oversees research and patient care as the Director of the Center for Orphaned Autoimmune Disorders. Dr. Cha’s research focuses on the pathogenesis of autoimmune Sjӧgren’s syndrome (SS) and cell replacement therapy to improve dry mouth in SS patients. In particular, she has investigated the pathological roles of anti-muscarinic type 3 receptor autoantibodies in hyposalivation, epigenetic regulation of microRNA and its functions in innate immunity, self-nucleic acid sensing mechanisms in monocytes, susceptibility genes by high-throughput genomics and proteomics, and diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for SS. Dr. Cha has published extensively in peer-reviewed international journals.
