SKKU-UCLA-NTU Precision Biology Research Center (PBRC)
Organizational Purpose
Establishment of a Research Center Connecting Nano Biology Technology and Clinical Research
Research collaboration with overseas universities (NTU, UCLA) (hosting international symposiums, exchanging specialized personnel, etc.)
Research Objectives
Identifying emerging challenges in the biological and biomedical systems and proposing solutions through Precision NanoBiology technology, thereby establishing a bridgehead enabling diverse nanomaterials/nanotechnologies developed at the bench side to rapidly transition to clinical application at the bedside.
Research Plan
Research on the detection and analysis of signaling biomolecules and biomarkers using chemical nanolithography. 2-3 professors from each institution are participating.
SKKU : Development of an Optics-Based Detection/Diagnostic Platform (Prof. Kim, Donghwan et al.)
NTU : Development of Nanomedicines for Antiviral Applications (Prof. Cho, Namjoon et al.)
UCLA : Research on the Interrelationship Between Nanomaterials and Biosystems (Prof. Paul S. Weiss et al.)
Organizational Structure
BICS Affiliated Research Institutions (Administrative Support: Sungkyun Convergence Institute Administrative Office)
Director of the Research Institute: Professor Kim, Donghwan
Appointment of Research Fellows (approximately 3 full-time faculty members) and 2 Postdoctoral Researchers
