Saswat Choudhury

Hi, Welcome to my website!

I'm Saswat Choudhury, a postdoctoral researcher at Yonsei University, S. Korea. under the Yonsei Frontier Postdoctoral Fellowship. I completed my doctoral research from the Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru, India. The term 'Science' has always fascinated me since childhood, to the extent that I decided to pursue a PhD straight after my graduation.  

My PhD research focused on engineering biomaterials, such as shape memory polymers and composites, and multi-component hydrogels for specific biomedical applications. I looked at the entire spectrum of materials: design, synthesis, fabrication, characterization, and end application.  I used additive manufacturing (3D/4D) of smart materials, such as shape memory polymer composites and multi-component hydrogels with design anisotropy to fabricate intricate and patient-specific implants. This was followed by an extensive characterization, and further engineering to improve the device performance in a specific biomedical application.

My postdoctoral research at Yonsei deals with fabricating soft biolectronic devices for advanced tissue engineering applications. 

My hobbies include listening to music and singing. I also have experience in science communication ( More here) and teaching facilitated by PMRF-ISSS (Institute of Smart Structures and Systems). (More here).
