Biography
Sangwook Wu received his B.A. degree in Biochemistry from Yonsei University (Korea) in 1990. After working as a Scientist at Samsung Display Devices (1995- 1999), he obtained his Ph.D. in theoretical condensed matter physics from Iowa State University (1999-2005). He joined the computational biophysics lab at UNCChapel Hill (Dr. Lee Pedersen) as postdoctoral research associate (2005-2014). From 2014 to the present, he has been a faculty member at Pukyong National University in Korea. His research interests are in the areas of computational dynamics of biological macromolecules.
