Biography:
Dr. Kwon’s research has centered on pharmaceutical biotechnology, focusing on molecular details of drug susceptibility and resistant mechanisms. His research aims to develop a new drug and a novel strategy to treat drug-resistant pathogens. His early studies focused on a gastric pathogen (Helicobacter pylori) causing gastric ulcers/cancers and has expanded to other pathogens (Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas, and Staphylococcus) causing various human diseases. He has published more than 80 research articles in SCI journals. He was educated at Georgia State University (Atlanta, GA, USA) and Baylor College of Medicine (Houston, TX, USA). Before moving to Long Island University (Brooklyn, NY, USA), he was a faculty member of Baylor College of Medicine.
