Professor in Department of Robotics Engineering at DGIST
Our research focus is on Micro-Electromechanical Systems (MEMS) and Nano- Electromechanical Systems (NEMS) for robotics and biomedicine. Current research activities in our group include micro-robots, micro/nano manipulation, acoustic MEMS transducers, brain-machine interfaces, and microfluidics devices. Potential applications for those research areas include minimally-invasive surgery, drug/cell transportation within the human body, neural prostheses for artificial sensory systems, medical communication, and ultrasonic medical imaging.
