Kim-Phuong graduated from Rutgers University, School of Engineering, Chemical and Biochemical Engineering in May 2002. During her undergraduate years, Kim joined Center for Advanced Biotech and Medicine (UMDNJ) as a research assistant (2000-2001), Colgate-Palmolive Technology Center as a R&D Summer Intern (Summer 2001) and Engineering Co-op (Aug 2001 - Aug 2002). Having a strong interest in polymer and biomaterial engineering, Kim has joined AMIPP since August 2002. She is currently working on the Bio-IMPB project on the application of AMIPP proprietary processing method toward hard-tissue scaffolding materials. The main focus of this project is the unique co-continuous morphology of the immiscible blends, which is viewed to be advantageous to achieve 3-D interconnecting microstructure of a cell scaffold. In order to fully characterize the new material, this project utilizes many of the AMIPP's state-of-the-art equipments, including the Advanced AR-2000 Rheometer System and the Q-1000 Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). In-vitro biocompatibility testing using cell culture are also part of this study. Selected Publications K-P. N. Le, R. L. Lehman, J. D. Idol, J. Lynch, P-M. Ward, T. J. Nosker,
