Welcome to Bong Research Group

The Bong Research Group is a research team dedicated to developing innovative technologies in microfluidics and biopolymer area. Especially, we focus on the synthesis, assembly, and analysis of 3D soft matter architectures. Using advanced micro/nanofabrication methods, We want to build complex 3D structures for use with in vitro diagnostics and in vivo therapeutics. We are constantly immersed in these researches to advance modern science.
