May 2025 welcomed Our new Postdoc! Welcome Back, Suhwan!

We’re so excited to welcome Dr. Suhwan Gim back to the lab! Suhwan was with us from October 2021 to December 2022 as an exchange scholar, funded by the Biomedical Global Leadership Training Program from the South Korean government. He officially rejoined us as a postdoc in May 2025, and we couldn’t be happier to have him back.

Suhwan earned his Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU), where he worked with Dr. Choong-Wan (Wani) Woo in the COCOAN Lab—one of our amazing collaborators. His research looks at how things like our social environment, culture, and background shape our health and how we think and feel.

We’re really looking forward to learning from Suhwan and diving into new research together—but also to hanging out, sharing good food, and trying new restaurants. So far, he said Tasty K ain’t bad!

Welcome back, Suhwan—you’ve been missed!
