Sang-Eon Park, PhD
Neuro-scientist and Neuro-engineer
Hi, I'm Sang-Eon!, from South Korea. I am currently a research professor in Brain Imaging Center at Seoul National University. Previously, I was a postdoctoral research scientist in the laboratory of Dr. Sang Ah Lee and I did my PhD with Dr. Robert Gross, at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta.
My research is focused on neurocognitive aging, to develop digital therapeutics for cognitive enhancement, based on scientific understanding of brain functional decline in aging. With my background in engineering fields, I'm interested in translating research findings into practical applications which can make the better world.
