The Media Research Division of Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) is a world-class research organization with more than 80 PhD-level researchers. Over the past 20 years, it has been continuously developing core fundamental technologies in video and audio compression, as well as broadcast transmission, focusing on MPEG and Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) standard bodies. Through these efforts, the company has secured more than 2,000 patents in major international standards in the media field, including ▲ High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), ▲ Versatile Video Coding (VVC), ▲ Unified Speech and Audio Coding (USAC), ▲ Three Dimension Audio (3DA), ▲ Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH), and ▲ Broadcast transmission technology (ATSC 3.0), with cumulative royalty revenues exceeding KRW 100 billion.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) marked the retirement of Joseph Thomason on Sept. 5, recognizing his extraordinary 62-year career in the Radar Division that helped shape modern over-the-horizon (OTH) radar capabilities for the Navy and the nation.

NYU scientists are developing a zinc-based treatment for tooth decay that combats bacteria, blocks pain, and avoids staining teeth—all without drilling

The Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials (KIMM, President Seog-Hyeon Ryu), under the National Research Council of Science and Technology (NST, Chairman Young-Shik Kim), has announced the successful development and demonstration of Korea’s first 20kW-class anode-supported solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) system.

The system achieved more than 3,000 hours of stable, continuous operation with electrical efficiency exceeding 83%, marking a significant step toward the large-scale, cost-efficient production of clean hydrogen. This accomplishment lays the groundwork for the integration of hydrogen production with renewable energy and nuclear power, supporting Korea’s transition to a hydrogen economy and carbon neutrality.

Without early detection, conditions such as congenital heart defects and familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) can quietly disrupt growth, energy levels, and long-term organ function.

Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) can detect these risks at the earliest possible stage. It shifts cardiac care away from crisis management toward proactive, precision prevention.

Psoriasis is a serious, incurable systemic disease that causes painful skin lesions and significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and arthritis. It affects about 125 million people worldwide—roughly 2–3% of us—and too often demands lifelong treatment.

New research published in Nature shows that early treatment, within one year of disease onset, can significantly reduce the risk of relapse. Genetic profiling can support clinicians on precise diagnosis and timely treatment. Moving from one-size-fits-all care to durable and personalized healthcare.
