معرفی
Arum Han is a Professor of Electrical & Computer Engineering and holds the Texas Instruments Professorship II at Texas A&M University. He serves as Associate Dean for Research in the College of Engineering, Associate Agency Director of the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (TEES), and Project Office Director for CHIPS in TEES's Strategic Advanced Research Unit. His affiliations include Biomedical Engineering and Chemical Engineering departments.
Dr. Han's educational background includes a Ph.D. from Georgia Institute of Technology (2005), M.S. from University of Cincinnati (2000), and B.S. from Seoul National University (1997). His research focuses on microfluidics, lab-on-a-chip systems, high-throughput microbial bioenergy systems, and organ-on-chip platforms for drug discovery and pregnancy-related pathologies. Key projects include modeling feto-maternal interfaces, developing anti-viral discovery tools, and mitigating microbial corrosion via DARPA funding.
- Research Highlights: Organ-on-chip models for pregnancy complications, droplet microfluidics for microbial analysis, and biodegradation of plastics.
- Recent Innovations: FMi-OOC (feto-maternal interface organ-on-chip), exosome-based therapies, and high-throughput microbial conjugation platforms.
His awards include the 2016 Dean of Engineering Excellence Award and 2015 E.D. Brockett Professorship. Over $80M in active grants fund projects like anti-viral microfluidics (NIH), microbial corrosion mitigation (DARPA), and placental organ-on-chip systems.
Lab facilities include the Nanobio Systems Lab, which collaborates on projects such as bacterial cancer therapies (ARPA-H) and clinical trials-on-chip (NIH/NCATS). His work bridges engineering, microbiology, and biomedicine to address global health challenges.
