What if robots could hear their way around, like bats? A team led by Prof. Sung-Hoon Ahn has developed a 3D auditory sensor that uses just one mic to locate people through sound—even in noisy factories or disaster zones. Published in Robotics and Computer-Integrated

A team at SNU, led by Prof. Min Jae Lee, discovered that cells can send out tiny cleaning kits—proteasomes packed in extracellular vesicles (EVs)—to help neighboring cells remove harmful proteins. This finding may open new doors for treating brain diseases like Alzheimer’s and

Who knew nitrite waste could glow up? From toxic leftovers to high-value molecules — Prof. Yunho Lee’s team at SNU has developed a green chemistry method to upcycle nitrite (NaNO₂) into valuable N,O-heterocycles, used in drugs and bioactive compounds. Published in JACS:

No precious metals. No complex catalysts. Just clean, affordable hydrogen. Prof. Jeyong Yoon’s team has developed a game-changing electrolysis strategy—called the EA operation method—that produces green hydrogen without expensive metal catalysts or complicated manufacturing

“Um… yeah, exactly!” AI just got a lot more human. Prof. Gunhee Kim’s team at SNU has built a conversational AI that talks like we do—filler words, backchannels, interruptions and all. Less robot. More real talk. The team’s work just won the Senior Area Chair Award in Speech

What does daily care really mean to individuals? A recent study by Prof. Kyungmi Woo’s team analyzed 4,350 narratives and uncovered clear gender differences in daily care preferences — from entertainment to family relationships. Care that respects difference is care that makes a

Stretchable electronics are key for wearables, biomedical devices, and smart clothes—they need circuits that can bend and stretch without breaking. Prof. Seongjun Park’s team developed a cool new tech using ligand-bound liquid metal particles that prints both circuits and

Fusion energy: zero carbon, endless fuel—sounds perfect, except for controlling plasma hotter than the sun. Luckily, Prof. Yong-Su Na and team just cracked part of the puzzle, revealing how high-energy particles, fast ions, keep plasma turbulence in check. Published in Nature

Most electronics today are rigid—great for performance, but not so great for comfort. Researchers from SNU and KAIST, led by Prof. Seongjun Park, have developed a game-changing liquid metal ink that’s flexible, tunable, and printable at room temperature, opening a new

As AI and big data continue to grow rapidly, data security has never been more important. That’s why Prof. Jong-Ho Lee’s team developed an innovative technology called Concealable PUF. It securely hides unique security keys and reveals them only when needed—security, but smarter.

What if the very drugs meant to fight cancer are secretly holding it back? A SNU research team led by Prof. Rajendra Karki found that acrolein—a toxic byproduct made during chemotherapy—blocks a key process that kills cancer cells. Excitingly, removing acrolein improved drug

Chemical reactions usually require molecules to have matching electrical properties—like battery levels. Profs. Seung Youn Hong and Seunghoon Lee’s team at SNU developed a catalyst that enables electron transfer even when their “redox potentials” differ. This catalyst removes

Not all proteins need to grow up to make a difference. Prof. Seung Joon Baek’s team has uncovered a surprising role for the pro-form of NAG-1 (aka GDF15) — a gene previously linked to diseases like cancer. Their research shows that even before it matures, this early-stage protein

Kombucha vs. cow burps?🐄💨 Methane is a potent greenhouse gas—and cows make a lot of it. Prof. Younghoon Kim's team at SNU turned to kombucha. They decoded rumen microbes with metagenomics and found functional microbes in kombucha that can help cut methane, naturally and

El Niño is about to get busier. According to new research, if CO₂ emissions are reduced only after substantial warming has occurred, El Niño events could suddenly become more frequent and occur on shorter cycles. Led by Prof. Jong Seong Kug, the study emphasizes how delayed

Shark skin may be cool, but it’s been a real headache for scientists—its tough, denticle-covered surface makes CT scans nearly useless for studying what’s underneath. A new AI tool called SKINPEELER, developed by Prof. Sechang Park’s team at SNU, changes the game by virtually

A molecule with two faces, decides whether lung cells grow old—or turn cancerous. Prof. Min Jae Lee’s team found that UBR4 drives energy remodeling under stress, steering cells toward either senescence or tumor growth. A promising new target for lung cancer therapy. Published in
