Profile
Professor Ko completed his undergraduate (2005) and master’s (2007) degree in the Dept. of physical education at the Seoul National University. And he received his Ph.D. (2014) at the Pennsylvania State University with the major of biomechanics and motor control under the supervision of Dr. Karl. M Newell. Based on his background, most of his research focuses on a human postural control with aging, neurological disorder, and sport performance.
