Biography

Dr. Deok?Ho Kim is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Bioengineering, and is jointly appointed in the Center for Nanotechnology, the Center for Cardiovascular Biology, and the Institute for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine at the University of Washington. He received the B.S. from POSTECH in 1998, the M.S. degree from Seoul National University in 2000, in Mechanical Engineering, and the Ph.D. degree in Biomedical Engineering from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in 2010. From March 2000 to June 2005, he worked as a Research Scientist at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST), including his 7 months academic visit at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology at Zurich (ETH?Zurich). His research interests include development and applications of advanced biomaterials and micro/nano-technologies in cell mechanobiology, stem cells and tissue engineering. He has published more than 100 peer-reviewed journal and conference publications, 8 book chapters, and 15 patents issued or pending in the areas of micro/nanotechnology, biomaterials, and tissue engineering. His papers have been cited > 1700 times in total (H-index: 23) and highlighted in Science Magazine, the JHU Gazette, the UW Today, and many newspapers. Among the award he has received are American Heart Association Predoctoral Fellowship (2008), Samsung Humantech Thesis Award (2009), the Harold M. Weintraub Award in Biological Sciences (2010), Perkins Coie Award for Discovery (2011), American Heart Association Scientist Development Award (2012), KSEA Young Investigator Award (2013), and BMES-CMBE Rising Star Award (2013).
