Prof. Park is an associate professor of chemical and biological engineering at the University at Buffalo, SUNY and has published broadly in the area of protein engineering using modeling, rational design, and directed evolution. Protein–ligand and antibody–ligand interactions with relevance to detection and therapeutics are of particular interest. His lab engineered the world’s first genuine monomeric streptavidin. There is a huge untapped potential in glycoscience for innovative protein modeling and engineering studies, which are currently being explored in the group.
