Researchers Jung-Hwan Lee and Banani Kundu were selected for a National Project. Each one got 50M won/year up to 3 years.
Jung-Hwan Lee proposed the development of bioactive glass nanoparticle incorporated dental materials for dentin regeneration.
Banani proposed the development of a customized drug screening three-dimensional platform to treat metastatic neuroblastoma.
Internship and collaborative research under professor Ivan Wall in UCL Biochemical Engineering.
Main project is doing an experimentation on an injectable hydrogel for enhanced Olfactory Ensheathing Cells (hOECs) delivery for the nerve tissue regeneration.
OECs interaction with neurons and astrocytes with behavior characterization with the use of different hydrogels.
Global Research Lab (GRL) Program, led by Prof. Hae-Won Kim with Prof. Kam W. Leong in Columbia and Prof. Jonathan Knowles and Dr. Ivan Wall in University College London, is a world-leading integrated research on the cellular reprogramming with biomaterials and biomedical technology.
Korea government invests the GRL team about 500,000,000 KRW annum up to 6 years (from 2015’ to 2021’), and a matching of ~140,000 plus 480,000 USD annum for 6 years from Columbia and UCL also includes.
The global team aims to apply nano-biomedical engineering platforms to directly reprogram cells, with high efficiency, safety, and scalability, those applicable for the nerve and muscle repair and regeneration.
Dr. Banani Kundu and Dr. Junghwan Lee were granted NRF research fund for the year 2015.
ITREN expanded its International cooperation with School of Medicine, Yanbian University in July, 2015.
Institute has recently signed Memorandum of Understanding Agreement with School of Medicine, Yanbian University for joint research in tissue engineering and translational work.
Yanbian University has been selected as one of the Top Universities in China and supported by the State “211Project”.
The joint researches will focus on repairing mandibular defect by use of particles and stimulating cartilage regeneration through cartilage cells and synthetic polymer scaffold.
