Christian Kim Completes MSE Research Scholars Fellowship

Last updated on Oct 4, 2026

Congratulations to Christian Kim for completing his MSE Research Scholars Fellowship for the Summer of 2026. He has made a lot of research progress in the field of soft active matter during the summer, and we are excited to continue working with him in Fall 2026 as he continues his summer project!

More about the MSE Research Fellowship

Soft Responsive Materials Laboratory (SRM-Lab)

My research focuses on developing new stimuli-responsive polymeric microstructured surfaces and microactuators—leveraging fundamental principles of polymer science, chemical synthesis, mechanics, and advanced nano/microfabrication techniques—for applications in miniaturized soft robotics as well as optical and mechanical meta-devices.
