Biography
Dr. Kwon’s research has centered on pharmaceutical biotechnology focusing on molecular details of drug resistance and susceptibility mechanisms. The overall goal of his research is to develop a new drug and a novel strategy to treat drug-resistant bacterial pathogens. He has studied the bacterial pathogens causing infections of bloodstream, urinary tract, respiratory system, and gastric ulcers/cancers. These bacterial pathogens readily acquire resistance to multiple antibiotics and become a major public health problem worldwide. Dr. Kwon was educated at Georgia State University (Atlanta, GA, USA) and Baylor College of Medicine (Houston, TX, USA). He worked as a faculty member at Baylor College of Medicine before moving to Long Island University (Brooklyn, NY, USA).
