High-resolution quantitative X-ray phase nanoimaging based on cutting-edge optical imaging methods

Prof. Park’s group has developed a novel high-resolution quantitative X-ray phase imaging system that can overcome two long-standing challenges in X-ray nanoimaging: the limitations in image resolution and the instability of phase retrieval methods. They applied optical imaging techniques that they have recently developed in the same group. The imaging systems have been successfully tested in both...read more

Sex-specific effects of social isolation on shaping social behavior and maturing cortical neurons during adolescence

Prof. Lee’s group found adolescent social isolation dampens sociability and cortical maturation only in female mice. They performed anatomical, physiological, behavioral, genetic knock-out, and optogenetic studies to prove that the expression of a specific gene, parvalbumin, in GABAergic neurons is important for shaping sociability in female mice.

2.5D Laser-Cutting-Based Customized Fabrication of Long-Term Wearable Textile sEMG Sensor

Prof. Jung Kim’s group has developed a 2.5D laser cutting method to accelerate customized sEMG sensor fabrication from design to production. sEMG sensors measure human muscle activity and are widely used in wearable systems for human-machine interaction. In order to use sEMG sensors for a long time in daily life, it is necessary to develop a sensor that can be customized and worn easily and does not affect the signal due to movement. This customizable textile-based sEMG sensor provides high wearing comfort and improves the sensor signal quality through stable contact.
