Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSangyoon Han is an associate professor and mechanobiologist who leverages mechanical engineering and computational imaging to dissect how intracellular forces, traction forces, biochemical signaling, and adhesion dynamics coordinate cell migration. With a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Washington and postdoctoral stints at Harvard Medical School and UT Southwestern, he combines finite-element thinking, traction force reconstruction, and machine learning to quantify cytoskeletal mechanics. Since joining Michigan Technological University he has translated methodological advances from live-cell image analysis into a research program that bridges theory and experiment. His background in spine finite-element modeling and early work on one-dimensional cell migration underscore a persistent focus on connecting multiscale mechanical models to biological function. Colleagues know him for pairing rigorous algorithm development with hands-on experiments, often teasing out mechanistic insights that are not apparent from imaging alone.
