Biography

Prof. Sung Kwon Cho founded the “Micro/Bio Fluidics Lab” to explore microfluidics and microfabrication research areas and to integrate research and education. The nature of his research is highly interdisciplinary, encompassing fluid mechanics, micro/nano manufacturing, interfacial science, electrical engineering, and bioengineering. In essence, his research activities heavily rely on micro/nano fabrication technology. His major research topic areas include microbubble dynamics and control, acoustofluidics, microrobots, microswimmers propelled by oscillating bubbles, digital microfluidics based on electrowetting, micro particle sampling/separation/concentration, surface tension control with particle interactions, wireless powering mechanisms for implantable lab on a chip, artificial lung, etc. He has published a large number of journal, conference, and patent articles (Google citations ~ 7000, h-index: 35) in micro/bio fluidics and MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical systems) areas, mostly with financial supports from federal grants (e.g., NSF, DOD, NIH, DOE, HSARPA, AHA) and University of Pittsburgh.
