I work in the Centre for Blood Research at University of British Columbia. I learned about OpenWetWare after I attended Pacific Rim Summit on Industrial Biotechnology and Bioenergy meeting at Vancouver in 2008 September and listened the inspiring plenary lecture by Dr. Endy Drew about Synthetic Biology titled "Can we make Biology Easy to Engineer?", and I've joined because I wanted to share protocols and ideas about sciences and discuss about daily questions for myself and others.. After I joined it, I also realized that I can use this OpenWetWare for live website for communicating with fermenter users for on-going project using OpenWetWare LabNotebook.

Education

• 2005, Post doctoral resesarch, University of British Columbia , Vancouver, BC, Canada
• 2003, Post doctoral resesarch, Harvard Medical School , Boston, MA, USA
• 2001, PhD. Bioengineering, Osaka University , Osaka, Japan
• 1997, MS. Biochemistry, Catholic Medical School , Seoul, Korea

Research interests

1. Small-scale fermentation optimization and process development:
   Provide time and cost efficient production tools using fermentation equipment.
2. Building up fermentation data base:
   Provide on-line database with detailed fermentation conditions from our suite in the past for result download, invoices, tracking down previous data, and data comparison.
3. Sharing scientific information for trouble shooting and protocal exchanges: Information required to media preparation, basic fermentation technology, host strain information, etc.
