KAIST is accepting applications for the third Artist Residency Program, “The Endless Road,” from September 22, 2014 to October 21, 2014.
Through the program, KAIST has supported emerging and promising artists, writers in particular, such as novelists, poets, storytellers, and playwrights, to live on the campus and encourage them to interact with students and faculty. Originally initiated to integrate art and science and to seek synergistic effects that benefit both communities, the program has been well received by artists and scientists.
A total of three writers will be selected, and they will receive a stipend of USD 753.00 per month for six months. The program is available only in Korean.

research KAIST Develops AI to Easily Find Promising Materials That Capture Only CO₂
< Photo 1. (From left) Professor Jihan Kim, Ph.D. candidate Yunsung Lim and Dr. Hyunsoo Park of the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering > In order to help prevent the climate crisis, actively reducing already-emitted CO₂ is essential. Accordingly, direct air capture (DAC) — a technology that directly extracts only CO₂ from the air — is gaining attention. However, effectively capturing pure CO₂ is not easy due to water vapor (H₂O) present in the air. KAIST r

research Military Combatants Usher in an Era of Personalized Training with New Materials
< Photo 1. (From left) Professor Steve Park of Materials Science and Engineering, Kyusoon Pak, Ph.D. Candidate (Army Major) > Traditional military training often relies on standardized methods, which has limited the provision of optimized training tailored to individual combatants' characteristics or specific combat situations. To address this, our research team developed an e-textile platform, securing core technology that can reflect the unique traits of individual combatants and
