Before he joined the department, he was an Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University at Buffalo, the State University of New York from Aug 2010 to Jan 2013. He is also a Visiting Scholar of Radiology at Stanford University and Mayo Clinic. His research interests are the development of novel biomedical imaging techniques including photoacoustic tomography, ultrasound-modulated optical tomography, fluorescence imaging, optical coherence tomography, and ultrasound imaging. Particularly, his lab developed photoacoustic gastro-intestinal tract imaging using organic agents, photoacoustic cystography, clinical photoacoustic/ultrasound imaging scanner, fast optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy based on a 2-axis water-proof MEMS scanner (spin-off company, OPTICHO), etc. He was the recipients of the 2020-2021 IEEE EMBS Distinguished Lecturer, the 2020 SPIE Hitachi High-tech Best Presentation Award, the 2020 Microscopy Today Innovation Award, the 2017 IEEE EMBS Academic Early Career Achievement Award, the 2017 Korean Academy of Science and Technology Young Scientist Award (The Korean Presidential and Highest Award for Engineers under 40), the 2016 Nightingale Award from The International Federation for Medical and Biological Engineering (IFMBE), and the 2017 Korean Society of Medical & Biological Engineering Young Investigator Award “Contributions to multi-scale photoacoustic imaging from super-resolution atomic force photoactivated microscopy for research to systems for clinical applications.”
Dr. Chulhong Kim has been a proud member of the IEEE throughout his career. He is an IEEE Senior Member. He has currently served as an Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, a Topical Editor of IEEE ACCESS, Section Editor of Photoacoustics Journal, and an Editorial Board Member of Scientific Reports, Applied Science, Sensors, etc. He served as a Theme Co-Chair for the 39th and 40th Annual International Conference of the IEEE EMBS. He has served as a journal reviewer >150, including for Nature Photonics, Nature Communication, Light Science & Applications, IEEE Transactions, and etc. He has delivered numerous invited presentations (>160) in technical conferences and seminars in universities. He is also elected as a member of Young Korean Academy of Science and Technology (Y-KAST).
