About
Dr. Su Yeon Rhee is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of synthetic biology and cellular engineering, with a primary focus on chemotaxis control and nanobiohybrid systems. Her most notable contribution lies in the groundbreaking achievement of chemically manipulating the movement and direction of Jurkat T cells through a novel "fugetaxis" mechanism—a feat accomplished using cell-in-catalytic-coat nanobiohybrids that respond to glucose gradients. This work, published in 2023 and already garnering 6 citations, represents a significant leap forward in the underexplored territory of cellular chemotaxis control. By demonstrating the ability to direct immune cell migration with precision, Dr. Rhee's research opens transformative possibilities for cytotherapeutics, biosensors, and the development of cell-based robots. Her innovative approach of combining living cells with catalytic coatings showcases her unique ability to bridge materials science and cell biology, positioning her as a rising leader in the field of biohybrid systems. Dr. Rhee's work holds particular promise for advancing targeted drug delivery and immune cell therapies, where controlled cellular movement is paramount.
