Scholar-generated biography
Song Ih Ahn is a researcher at KAIST specializing in biomedical devices, organ-on-a-chip systems, 3D printed electronics, and drug delivery technologies. Their work focuses on developing microengineered platforms to model biological barriers such as the blood-brain barrier, enabling the study of nanoparticle transport and drug delivery mechanisms. Ahn's research also explores the use of 3D-printed electronics for biomedical applications and the engineering of biomimetic nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery to the central nervous system. Additionally, they investigate the physiological mimicry of neurovascular units and the impact of mechanical forces on cellular behavior, such as shear stress effects on endothelial and microglial cells.
