Professor Se-Kwon Kim, PhD, currently serves as a senior professor in the Department of Chemistry and the director of the Marine Bioprocess Research Center (MBPRC) at Pukyong National University in the Republic of Korea. He received his BSc, MSc, and PhD from the Pukyong National University and joined as a faculty member. He has previously served as a scientist in the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, Illinois (1988-1989), and was a visiting scientist at the Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada (1999-2000).Professor Se-Kwon Kim was the first president of the Korean Society of Chitin and Chitosan (1986-1990) and the Korean Society of Marine Biotechnology (2006-2007). He was also the chairman for the 7th Asia-Pacific Chitin and Chitosan Symposium, which was held in South Korea in 2006. He is one of the board members of the International Society of Marine Biotechnology and the International Society for Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods. Moreover, he was the editor in chief of the Korean Journal of Life Sciences (1995-1997), the Korean Journal of Fisheries Science and Technology (2006-2007), and the Korean Journal of Marine Bioscience and Biotechnology (2006-present). His research has been credited with the best paper award from the American Oil Chemist’s Society (AOCS) and the Korean Society of Fisheries Science and Technology in 2002.Professor Se-Kwon Kim’s major research interests are investigation and development of bioactive substances derived from marine organisms and their application in oriental medicine, nutraceuticals, and cosmeceuticals via marine bioprocessing and mass- production technologies. He has also conducted research on the development of bioactive materials from marine organisms for applications in oriental medicine, cosmeceuticals, and nutraceuticals. To date, he has authored over 600 research papers and holds 152 patents. In addition, he has written or edited more than 60 books. Dr. Kyung-Hoon Shin is currently a professor in the Department of Marine Sciences and Convergent Technology, as well as the Director of the Institute of Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences, at Hanyang University. He received his MSc from Nagoya University and PhDs from Hokkaido University in Japan. Additionally, he worked as a research scientist for the Frontier Observational Research System of Global Change from the International Artic Research Center, for which he was awarded the Outstanding Research Accomplishment Award in 2002. He served as the Editor-in-Chief of the Korean Journal of Ecology and Environment from 2011 to 2018. Currently, he serves as the Associate Editor of the Geochemical Journal, Marine Drugs, and Frontiers in Marine Science. Dr. Jayachandran Venkatesan M.Sc., M.Phil., Ph.D. is an assistant professor in Yenepoya Research Centre (YRC), Yenepoya (Deemed to be University), India. He worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the Division of Bioengineering, Incheon National University, and Hanyang University, South Korea. Previously, he worked as a Research Professor at the Department of Chemistry and Marine Bioprocess Research Center (MBPRC) at Pukyong National University, South Korea. He received his Master of Science in chemistry from Thiruvalluvar University in 2005. Further, He received his Ph.D. from Pukyong National University in 2011. His primary research interests are the investigation and development of naturally derived polymers, ceramics, and protein-based materials for biomedical applications. Furthermore, he works on natural biomaterials for tissue engineering and drug delivery applications.
