The Jun Lab

“What do you do for a living?” is perhaps the most common question asked during adulthood. Our profession and work are not simply where we spend more than half of our lives but also a large portion of how adults identify themselves.

I am an assistant professor at the Ohio State University College of Nursing Center for Healthy Aging, Self-Management, and Complex Care. My greatest passion is empowering, validating, and advocating for workers, especially those traditionally silenced at work, such as women and marginalized populations, by optimizing their health and well-being. Examining and promoting the health and well-being of workers is complex and requires unraveling one piece at a time.

The Jun Lab is where clinical and translational science meets health services research to improve workers’ health and well-being. ​​​

Mission: We exist to empower, validate, and advocate for workers by optimizing their total health and well-being so that they can be the best version of themselves to make the changes we need in the world.

What we study: emotional and physiologic occupational health, work experiences, worker performance, and organizational outcomes.
