Ahyeon Koh is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Binghamton University. She earned her BS and MS from Sogang University, followed by a PhD from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and completed postdoctoral training at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Her research focuses on overcoming biocompatibility challenges in biosensors through innovative approaches including therapeutic release systems, flexible/stretchable platforms, and bio-inspired materials. Research interests center on developing biocompatible sensing systems for real-time physiological monitoring. The Koh Lab pioneers wearable biosensors with specific emphasis on breathable epidermal devices, electrochemical detection, and microfluidic sweat analysis. Key innovations include skin-interfaced microfluidic systems for sweat capture/storage, ultrathin injectable sensors for cardiac monitoring, and sustainable electronics from upcycled materials. Her 15 most recent publications (2018-2025) primarily focus on wearable biosensors (73%), microfluidics (13%), sustainable electronics (7%), and wound monitoring (7%). Emerging trends include epidermal electronics, stretchable nanofibers, non-invasive biomarker detection, and mobile health integration. Patented technologies cover epidermal biofluid characterization devices and organ-mounted electronics. Significant contributions include NSF CAREER Award research advancing biosensor design and leadership in Mayo Clinic inflammatory disease projects. Current investigations target flexible bioelectronics, enhanced sweat biomarker analysis, and smart wound care platforms serving clinical, point-of-care, and diagnostic applications.
