Professor Do-Gyoon Kim is a tenured professor in the Division of Orthodontics at The Ohio State University. He received his undergraduate training in Biology at Yonsei University in Seoul, Korea. After obtaining his Master’s degree from the same institution, he began working at Daewoo Co. in Korea. He earned his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in Troy, NY, USA. He has served as a postdoctoral researcher at SUNY Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, NY, and as a research scientist and instructor at the Bone and Joint Center at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, MI. Since joining OSU, he has managed several grants, including the AAOF Biomedical Research Award, OSU seed grants, corporate dental implant grants as well as NSF and NIH grants. Thanks to this support, he has published more than 100 full papers. His research interests include the mechanobiology of osteoporosis; viscoelastic mechanics of bone; mechanics of orthodontic tooth movement; degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis at the TMJ); tissue–biomaterial interactions (macro-, micro-, and nano-levels); and bone tissue engineering, including stem cell therapies.
