Assistant Dean & Lecturer, International College of Digital Innovation, Chiang Mai University — a molecular biologist working where the wet lab, cold-plasma technology, and digital innovation meet.
Chakkrapong Kuensaen — Chak — is a molecular biologist whose work moves between the wet lab and the frontier of non-thermal plasma science. He earned his Ph.D. in Biology at Chiang Mai University studying the pathobiology of rheumatoid arthritis, trained in intracellular membrane dynamics at Osaka University, and began in animal and population genetics.
Today he works at the intersection of life science, cold-plasma technology, and digital innovation — teaching startup and entrepreneurship courses at ICDI, serving as Chief Technology Officer at Team Lab Plus, and advising food, agricultural, and health product-development programs across the northern provinces of Thailand.
