About

Dr. Kyumin Kang is a leading innovator at the intersection of soft bioelectronics, neuroprosthetics, and human-machine interfaces. Their research focuses on developing advanced polymeric adhesives and strain sensors that seamlessly integrate with biological tissues, enabling next-generation interactive systems. Dr. Kang’s major contributions include the design of an injection-on-skin granular adhesive for interactive human-machine interfaces (iHMI), which facilitates soft, tissue-like strain sensors for cognitive behavior therapy and physical rehabilitation (34 citations). They also established a molecular rationale for strain-tolerant, reversible polymeric adhesives that function robustly underwater, overcoming critical challenges of cohesive failure under harsh mechanical deformation (32 citations). Most recently, Dr. Kang introduced a performance-recoverable closed-loop neuroprosthetic system, addressing long-term stability issues in sensory-motor recovery (9 citations). Their work is notable for bridging materials science and neural engineering, with direct implications for patients with brain disorders and those requiring durable, stretchable bioelectronic devices. With a growing citation impact, Dr. Kang is shaping the future of adaptive, resilient biointerfaces.
