Bio

Jaewon Park is an Associate Professor in the Department of Electro-Mechanical Systems Engineering at Korea University, Sejong. He received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Texas A&M University, where he developed microfluidic microsystems for in vitro CNS neuron studies. His research focuses on BioMEMS and microfluidic platforms for biomedical applications, including Brain-on-a-chip systems, immuno-microfluidic cell separation, wearable liquid metal–based sensors, and non-invasive monitoring devices. His work aims to translate microengineered systems into clinically and environmentally relevant diagnostic and monitoring technologies.
