Positions
PhD student Sep 2019 - Feb 2025
Daegu Gyeonbuk Institute of Science & Technology(DGIST)
I am employing an innovative approach in biomedical engineering, utilizing Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to develop balloon-type implantable drug delivery devices aimed at circumventing fibroblast encapsulation and enabling long-term controlled drug release. Through creative design and meticulous experimentation, I aim to significantly advance traditional implantable device technology, offering promising solutions for sustained therapeutic interventions across diverse disease models. This transformative research holds immense potential to reshape the landscape of drug delivery, ultimately improving patient outcomes and quality of life.
Researcher Sep 2018 - Aug 2019
Daegu Gyeonbuk Institute of Science & Technology(DGIST)
Specializing in wearable sensing technology, I focused on the design and fabrication of capacitive-based devices and silver-nanowire-based flexible pressure sensors. My research targeted applications in monitoring the palmar grasp reflex and non-nutritive sucking behaviors, particularly in premature babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). These devices had undergone rigorous clinical trials in NICU settings, demonstrating their efficacy in real-world healthcare scenarios. With a keen emphasis on innovation and practical implementation, I strived to develop advanced sensor systems capable of accurately capturing intricate physiological responses. Through my work, I aimed to contribute valuable insights to the field of biomedical research, particularly in enhancing our understanding of infant development and neurological functions.
