Announcing New Chair of the NTC TC on Nanosensors and Nanoactuators (TC7)

It is our pleasure to announce the new Chair of the NTC TC7 Nanosensors and Nanoactuators, Inkyu Park. On behalf of the NTC TAC, I would like to thank him for taking this responsibility and wish him a very successful leadership.

Prof. Inkyu Park received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. from KAIST (1998), UIUC (2003) and UC Berkeley (2007), respectively, all in mechanical engineering. He has been with the department of mechanical engineering at KAIST since 2009 as a faculty and is currently a KAIST Endowed Chair Professor and Full Professor. Prior to joining KAIST, he was a research specialist at Berkeley Sensor and Actuator Center (BSAC) in 2007-2008, CTO & Co-founder of nPrintSolutions, inc. in 2008-2009, and visiting researcher at Hewlett Packard Laboratory in 2005-2008. His research interests are nanofabrication, smart sensors, nanomaterial-based sensors, flexible & wearable electronics, self-powered sensors, and sensors for environmental and healthcare monitoring applications. He has published more than 120 international journal articles (SCI indexed) and 160 international conference proceeding papers in the area of MEMS/NANO engineering (h index=38, total citation >7600). He is a recipient of IEEE NANO Best Paper Award (2010), HP Open Innovation Research Award (2009-2012), KINC Fusion Research Award (2016, 2018), Grand Prize of KAIST School of Engineering Research Innovation Award (2020), and Excellent Researcher Award from the Society of Micro/Nano-Systems (2020).
