Biography:
Kyu Shik Mun had completed his Ph.D. at the University of Cincinnati in 2016, he joined the Cystic Fibrosis Research Center at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. There, he led the development of the “Organ-on-a-Chip Program,” leveraging his engineering skills to establish a microfluidic-based organ-on-a-chip initiative. As a Junior Faculty at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, he expanded his work to develop 3D bioengineered human organs using advanced 3D bioprinting technology. This includes creating patient-derived human lung airways, which show promise for studying diseases like Cystic Fibrosis and for drug screening and toxicity testing. His ongoing research aims to advance therapeutic strategies and personalized medicine.
