 Prof. Myung Ju Ahn(School of Medicine), Prof. Soong Ho Um(Chemical Engineering), Prof. Jee Yun Lee(School of Medicine), Prof. Hwan Su Yoon(Biological Sciences)

Among the post-genome multi-department project, four of SKKU faculty’s assignments were selected as achievements of excellence.

Post-genome multi-department project is a national R&D project collaborated by 7 institutions that analyzes genome information and develops application methods according to their expertise. The participating institutions are the Ministry of Science and ICT, Ministry of Health and Welfare, Ministry of Trade and Industry, Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, Rural Development Administration, and Korea Forest Service.

In this project, SKKU research teams have achieved these results:

Prof. Myung Ju Ahn(School of Medicine): Development of a single-cell transcriptional lung cancer metastasis-treatment prediction technology

Prof. Soong Ho Um(Chemical Engineering): Development of high-speed high-performance diagnostic technology for pre-cycle multi-genetic biomarkers of lung cancer

Prof. Jee Yun Lee(School of Medicine): Effectiveness demonstration of Immuno-cancer drugs for patients with metastatic gastric cancer and prediction biomarker discovery

Prof. Hwan Su Yoon(Biological Sciences): Ecklonia cava’s dielectric advancement and Development of anti-human papillomavirus (HPV) materials
