Research Adviser
He is a french scientist (Chargé de Recherche equivalent to Associate Professor) of French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), Paris-Saclay University and The University of Tokyo.
​
Since 2010, he has been working in several laboratories: Laboratory for Photonics and Nanostructures (2010 - 2016), Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (2016 - ) of Paris-Saclay University and Laboratory for Integrated Micro Mechatronics Systems (2020 - ) of The University of Tokyo, Japan. His research topics are the development of mobile MEMS more particularily the micro/nanorobotic swimmers toward biologic and biomedical lab-on-a-chip applications.
He is also affiliatted with the Paris-Saclay University and French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) and recently initiated biomedical micro/nanorobotics activities in the CNRS`s international laboratory (LIMMS) at The University of Tokyo for French-Japanese international collaborations on this field. Effectively contributes as an individual PI as well as in multidisciplinary collaborative projects. Winner of 5 world champions out of 7 years of participations to IEEE/NIST International Mobile Microrobotics Challenges. He speaks Korean (native), English (fluent), Japanese (fluent) and French (fluent).
​
Since 2020, he has been with LIMMS-CNRS, The University of Tokyo, Japan.
