Professor Tae-Joon Jeon is currently a visiting scholar at the Sydney Pharmacy School and a professor in the Department of Biological Engineering at Inha University, Korea, where he also holds a joint appointment in the Department of Biopharmaceutical Engineering. He earned his bachelor's degree in chemical engineering from Seoul National University in 2001 and a Ph.D. in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from UCLA in 2008. After completing postdoctoral research at UCLA, he joined Inha University in 2009, becoming a full professor with early promotion.
Professor Jeon has served as Dean of Admissions at Inha University and was a consultant and scientific advisory board member for AquaZ A/S in Denmark from 2009 to 2012. He was also a visiting professor at the University of Southern California in 2016. Leading a research group of two postdoctoral fellows and 19 students, his work focuses on drug delivery systems, biochips/biosensors, and tissues/organs-on-a-chip for alternative drug testing. His prolific research includes over 90 peer-reviewed articles and 41 patent applications, with 26 patents issued. Leveraging his patented technologies, he co-founded Q'rious Biotech, Inc., a company specializing in antibiotic testing.

This seminar will explore the use and potential of biomimetic membranes and their derivatives in various scientific and engineering applications. These membranes have potential as drug delivery platforms and biosensing technologies. In addition, the integration of functional membrane proteins into these biomimetic constructs has opened up opportunities for engineering applications. This talk will highlight our groundbreaking work with biomimetic membranes, including innovative applications such as drug delivery systems, aquaporin-based water purification technology, and biosensing applications. Of particular interest, our research introduces a novel drug delivery platform called "vesosomes" or "peas-in-a-pod". These liposomes have multiple compartments that allow for controlled and sustained release of contents. In addition, we will present how microfluidic systems are being used to more effectively fabricate drug delivery systems and biosensors.
