Dr. Sejong Kim, a graduate of KAIST, was cited as the Young Scientist of Optics and Quantum Electronics by the Korean Physical Society (KPC) at the 2017 KPC Spring Meeting on April 19.
Dr. Kim, now a postdoctoral scholar at the University of Technology Sydney, was recognized for the award based on her outstanding research of photonic crystals. She has published articles in Nano Letters, Advanced Materials, Optics Letters, and Optics Express 3 as the first author and co-first author. She also won the silver prize at the Samsung HumanTech Paper Award in the field of Physical Devices and Science as the first author in 2013, one of the most prestigious scientific paper awards in Korea.
Structural batteries are used in industries such as eco-friendly, energy-based automobiles, mobility, and aerospace, and they must simultaneously meet the requirements of high energy density for energy storage and high load-bearing capacity. Conventional structural battery technology has struggled to enhance both functions concurrently. However, KAIST researchers have succeeded in developing foundational technology to address this issue. < Photo 1. (From left) Professor Seong Su Kim, PhD

Now in its third year, following the 2022 Global Startup Internship Fair, the GSIS aims to introduce KAIST students to internship opportunities at U.S.-based startups and encourage participation in global internship programs, particularly for students with entrepreneu
2024-11-25A joint research team from Korea and the United States has developed next-generation, high-resolution image sensor technology with higher power efficiency and a smaller size compared to existing sensors. Notably, they have secured foundational technology for ultra-high-resolution shortwave infrared (SWIR) image sensors, an area currently dominated by Sony, paving the way for future market entry. KAIST (represented by President Kwang Hyung Lee) announced on the 20th of November that a research t
2024-11-22KAIST's quadrupedal walking robot "RAIBO", which can run seamlessly on sandy beaches, has now evolved into "RAIBO2"and achieved the groundbreaking milestone by becomeing the world's first quadrupedal robot to successfully complete a full-course marathon in an official event. < Photo 1.

(From left) Professor Heung Kyu Lee, KAIST Department of Biological Sciences, and Dr. Keun Bon Ku > Immunotherapy, which enhances the immune system's T cell response to eliminate cancer cells, has emerged as a key approach in cancer treatment. However, in the case of glioblastoma, an aggressive and treatment-resistant brain tumor, numerous clinical trials have failed to confirm their efficacy. Korean researchers have recently analyzed the mechanisms that cause T cell exhaus
