Seok-Hyun "Andy" Yun (born December 29, 1969) is a scientist and technologist at
which?] in San Jose, CA, where he was a founding member and manager. He joined the Wellman Center for Photomedicine (Dermatology) at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School in 2003 and is as of January 2017[update] a Professor, MGH Research Scholar, and the Director of the Harvard-MIT Summer Institute for Biomedical Optics. He is a recipient of the 2016 NIH Director's Pioneer Award
.
Yun's research has centered on the integration of light and life sciences.[1] His work contributed to the emergence of swept-source optical coherence tomography (optical frequency domain imaging).[2] His work led to the invention of "biological" lasers[3][4][5] and living lasers[6]— lasers that are made of biological materials or biocompatible forms such that they can be implemented and made implantable and/or injectable into biological systems.[7][8] His research also contributed to the development of Brillouin microscopy[9] and various implantable optical devices.[10]
