Paper title: Rational Design of flexible medical skin patch with microneedle)

Paper contents : Through the suggestion of microneedles that could increase medicinal delivery spend and can be mass produced, the team presented a solution that could put us a step forward in the commercialization of microneedle medicinal patches.)

< Bronze : Sang Mun Kim, Do Hyun Kang, Kang Yoon Sik, Dong Young Jeong, Professor Young Eun Seoung, Professor Gap Yang Seo ( Guidance Professor)>

Paper Title : Selective Functionalization of Thermally Responsive Polymer onto Carbon-supported Catalysts for Water Management in Fuel Cell

Paper Contents: through Selective Functionalization of Thermally Responsive Polymer onto Carbon-supported Catalysts for Water Management in hydrogen Fuel Cells, carbon surfaces show hydrophilic properties preventing flocculation of nanoparticles during production and show hydrophobic properties during usage to accelerate water movement increasing fuel cell efficiency. This research was carried out by both Professor Seo and Professor Seong.
