New Study Reveals A Novel Way to Promote Axon Regeneration
Their findings have been published in PNAS on July 23, 2019.
A nerve cell that rarely heals once it is injured by a traffic accident or disease. The protein that revived these cells was discovered. It is expected to present a new direction in the development of therapeutic agents for regenerating dam... Read More
UNIST Presents AI System that Predicts Traffic Conditions
Their findings have been published online in IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics.
A team of researchers, affiliated with UNIST presented an artificial intelligence technology that can predict traffic conditions for the next 5 to 15 minutes at an error rate of less than four kilometers an hour. This breakthrough has been... Read More
New Study Demonstrates Fluorine Speeds Up Two-Dimensional Materials Growth
The work by Distinguished Professor Feng Ding has been appeared in Nature Chemistry on July 16, 2019.
Back in 2004, the physics community was just beginning to recognize the existence of truly two-dimensional (2D) material, graphene. Fast forward to 2019, scientists explore a breadth of different 2D materials, expecting to uncover more of t... Read More
UNIST Opens the Way to Mass Manufacture of Nanopore-based Detection Technology
Their findings have been published in Advanced Functional Materials on July 4, 2019.
A technology to detect and analyze small biomolecules, such as DNA with a diameter roughly a hundredth the diameter of a human hair, is expected to be far more advanced. This is thanks to the sophisticated fabrication approach to tailor nan... Read More
New Study Presents Multiferroicity in Atomic Van Der Waals Heterostructures
Their findings have been published in the journal Nature Communications on June 14, 2019.
Multiferroics are defined as materials that simultaneously exhibit ferromagnetism and ferroelectricity. Such properties make those materials promising building blocks of novel multifunctional materials for a variety of applications. However... Read More
New Study Reveals Graphenes Now Go Monolayer and Single Crystalline
The work by Distinguished Professor Rodney Ruoff has been appeared in Advanced Materials on July 2, 2019.
An international team of researchers, led by Distinguished Professor Rodney S. Ruoff (School of Natural Sciences) from the Center for Multidimensional Carbon Materials (CMCM), within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) at UNIST, has repor... Read More
Discover a gene that is responsible for intellectual disability in Down syndrome
“Providing a potential way to treat intellectual disability in Down syndrome”
Professor Kyung-Tai Min’s team at UNIST, Korea discovered that restoring a gene altered in Down syndrome called the Down syndrome critical region 1 (DSCR1) rescued adult neurogenesis and learning and memory defects in a Down syndrome mouse... Read More
New Study Gives Explanation for How to Enlarge 2D Materials as Single Crystals
The work by Distinguished Professor Feng Ding has been appeared in Nature on May 23, 2019.
What makes something a crystal? A transparent and glittery gemstone? Not necessarily in the microscopic world. When all of its atoms are arranged in accordance with specific mathematical rules, we call the material a single crystal. Like th... Read More
Study Opens A New Route to Achieving Mechanical Metamaterials
This work has been published in Science Advances on May 10 2019.
Conventional materials in nature expand perpendicular to the applied pressure, However, some materials act quite differently. Mechanical metamaterials with negative Poisson’s ratio (NPR), contract perpendicular to the applied pressure... Read More
UNIST to Embark on New Era of Micro Modular Reactor
Chair Professor Il Soon Hwang (School of Mechanical Aerospace and Nuclear Engineering) has been selected to lead the 'Nuclear Convergence Multidiscipline Technology Development Program' by MSIT and NRF.
UNIST will embark on a research project to develop safe and economically-friendly ‘Micro Modular Reactor’ in Ulsan. The project will be carried out over a period of four years with the aim of developing the polar and ocean-under... Read More
