In a joint effort between the National Science Museum and KAIST, researchers have gathered to establish the Smart Science Museum Exhibition Research Group, which focuses on efficient exhibition guides using indoor GPS, augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and other core technologies from the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Professor Heung-Kyu Lee and his team from the School of Computing have developed a new algorithm for inserting and detecting digital watermarks in videos using an artificial neural network.

The KAIST Global Institute for Talented Education (ITE) has come under criticism for its disregard for student labor rights during its KAIST YOUTH Scientist Camp last month.

Professor Jeung Ku Kang of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and Graduate School of EEWS at KAIST and Professor Hyung Mo Jeong from Gangwon National University have developed a water-based hybrid energy storage device with high performance and precision using porous metal oxide nanoparticles and graphene.

The research team led by Professor Jeong Ho Lee from the Graduate School of Medical Science and Engineering has located the initial mutation that causes glioblastoma, one of the most aggressive and deadly brain tumors.

Professor Sang Yup Lee, a distinguished professor at the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, has succeeded in improving the production methods of a crucial organometallic compound called “haem”.

A joint research project between IVIM Technology and a team led by Professor Pilhan Kim from the Graduate School of Nanoscience and Technology and Graduate School of Medical Science and Engineering has developed the biomicroscopes IVM-C and IVM-CM.

One may wonder how exactly designers convert 2D designs to 3D designs. As a truer representation of reality, 3D designs naturally require a closer attention to detail for proportions and angles. On top of that, they need to be consistently shaped and structured across all points of view. As a result, designers go through dozens of sketches from different angles and arrive at a prototype after a pa

Recent research results of Professor Sung Yong Kim and his research group from the Department of Mechanical Engineering succeeded in understanding sub-mesoscale currents, characterizing the properties of waves roughly the size of a kilometer.

On September 10, the KAIST Core Tech Transfer Day was held at the Convention and Exhibition Center (COEX) in Seoul.

A research team from Korea University led by Professor Hyun Kyu Song has discovered an important mechanism between protein complexes during the initiation stage of autophagy.

Researchers at Georgia Tech have developed a prototype that mimics the behavior of polyethylene terephthalate (PET).

Edward Boyden and his research team at MIT have figured out a way to enlarge miniscule structures.

After five years of research, a team of scientists at the Australian National University (ANU) have successfully inserted components from cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) into tobacco plants.

The last week of August saw a surprising amount of precipitation for the season; the entire country suffered from an overflow of water, resulting in massive damages to building and crops.

The week of September 9 marked the start of KAIST’s fourth annual “Human Rights Week”.

A lecture on the emerging technologies of blockchains and cryptocurrencies and their applications was held in the Educational Support Building (W8) on May 29. The event was jointly organized by KAIST club Signal and startup company BlockOdyssey. The lecture, titled “The Present and Future of Blockchains and Cryptocurrencies”, was delivered by KAIST School of Electrical Engineering grad

Professor Hee Tak Kim, alongside a research team from the Advanced Battery Center, successfully developed a donut-shaped lithium sulfide anode that can be used to produce a long-lasting, high-energy-density lithium-sulfur battery.
