Taesuk Jun works on polymer and biomaterial systems, spanning self-assembling block copolymers that form complex nanostructures (like Frank-Kasper phases and gyroid patterns) and silk-fibroin-based biomaterials for medical applications such as heart valve leaflets, wound dressings, and antimicrobial coatings. This research blends fundamental materials chemistry with applied biomedical engineering, aiming to design materials with tailored mechanical, optical, or biological properties. Prospective students would likely engage in polymer synthesis, self-assembly characterization, and biomaterial fabrication for healthcare-related uses.
