BS/MSE (Bachelor’s and Master’s concurrent) in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering

Concentration: Molecular and Cellular Bioengineering

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Johns Hopkins University Research Assistant – Department of ChemBE Baltimore, MD

Presented master’s thesis on “Surface modification for 3D Biofabrication.” August 2013

- Fabricated self-folding microcapsules used as scaffold for 3D hydrogel structures. Incurred

detachment of 3D hydrogel by growth of thin-layered polymer, pNIPAAM

S ungkyunkwan University R esearch Assistant – Department of Chemical Engineering Suwon, Korea

Designed a study to discover the sensitivity of HER-2, a protein prevalent in breast cancer Summer 2012

patients, with the use of aptamer based sensor.

By depositing Au nanoparticles on the surface, obtained significant increase in sensitivity, which

led to publication.
