- Joint research by Distinguished Professor Sang Yup Lee’s team in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and SilicoBio, a KAIST faculty startup, presents a microbial food industrialization strategy encompassing manufacturing, markets, and regulation; published in the international journal One Earth

- A paradigm shift from “technologies for producing microbial foods” to “strategies for building a successful microbial food industry,” charting a path forward for future biomanufacturing platforms

POSTECH research team develops a highly directional speaker by integrating metamaterials with a single ultrasonic transducer.

- KAIST, the National University of Singapore (NUS), and Singapore Management University (SMU) jointly develop “SweepLED,” an AI technology that detects hidden cameras using only a smartphone and a LED device.

- SweepLED detects hidden cameras in chargers, clocks, remote controls, and other everyday objects in under five seconds, achieving approximately 94% detection accuracy.

- Introduces a low-cost, smartphone-based detection technology that accessible to everyday users  without specialized equipment.

Tokyo, Japan – Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have created a new system to test magnetohydrodynamic aerobraking for spacecraft reentering the atmosphere. Their platform generates intense magnetic fields with a powerful electromagnet as a miniature vessel is hit with a shockwave traveling at over seven kilometers per second. Their magnets reached far higher fields than previous work with permanent magnets and are a crucial stepping stone toward tests with real vessels in the atmosphere.

Researchers have developed fluorescent molecules that permit imaging how DNA is packaged inside living cells at unprecedented resolution, and in preserved cells, close to the width of the double helix itself. The advance raises the possibility that one day they could train an AI to look at how DNA occupies three-dimensional space inside cells for diagnosing and treating cancer and other types of conditions.

Scientists from Gladstone Institutes, UC San Francisco, and Stanford University, in collaboration with Biohub, have unveiled a massive, high-resolution functional map of human immune cells that promises to transform our understanding of how genetics control health and disease. Published in the journal Cell, the study represents a landmark achievement in immunology and genomics. By systematically stress-testing genes across the genome in 22 million human immune cells, scientists moved beyond mere DNA sequencing to decode the dynamic circuits that govern how these genes actually work in the context of health and disease.
