About
Jong‐Eun Won is a biomedical engineer and materials scientist whose research sits at the intersection of scaffold fabrication, biomaterials, and regenerative medicine, with a particular focus on bone and hard tissue reconstruction. Won has made significant contributions to the development of advanced 3D-printed and robocasting-derived scaffolds, pioneering the use of nanocomposite architectures that combine synthetic polymers such as poly(caprolactone) with bioactive ceramics like hydroxyapatite. His landmark 2012 study on PCL/hydroxyapatite scaffolds incorporating ionically modified carbon nanotubes, which has garnered 83 citations, demonstrated the potential of precisely engineered pore configurations to support hard tissue regeneration. Won has also advanced stem cell-based strategies for bone tissue engineering, showing that human induced pluripotent stem cells can be effectively cultured within macrochanneled polymer scaffolds—work cited 62 times. His 2013 research on microporous biopolymer scaffolds for controlled drug loading and delivery (66 citations) further highlights his versatility across therapeutic applications. Together, his body of work has helped establish robotic dispensing techniques as a powerful platform for next-generation tissue engineering scaffolds, making him a notable contributor to the biomaterials field.
