About me

My name is Karl L. Sangwon. I’m currently a Medical Student at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, who has interest in Computational Medicine research and entrepreneurships for Neurosurgery. My main interest lies in augmenting and exploring new perspectives on modern Art of Medicine using advanced technologies, to create a more 21-century-like ‘cyberpunk’ medical paradigm that fits my vision. It is my passionate vision to expand, represent, and clinically re-define our traditional definitions as well as approaches toward ‘diseases and disorders’ in a more mathematical, computable, and surgical manner.

I received my B.S. in Neuroscience, Applied Mathematics and Statistics, and Computational Medicine at Johns Hopkins University in 2022, where I spent most of my time doing neurodegeneration, multi-omics computational genomics, radiomics research.

My current primary research interest areas is in application of computational analytics in cerebrovascular neurosurgery, as well as microsurgical robotics and data science in healthcare.

I’m a first-generation Korean American and also an amateur Artist. I came to US alone when I was 14 to start a new life - since then I’ve been sailing towards the north star of American Dream… Outside of academics I have a wide array of art and cultural interests - I have been a backpack camper, painter, guitarist, and many others. Chances are, I’m learning a new hobby or trying out some random things at the moment.
