2026.08.21 ๐ Prof. Hwan Drew Kim Selected for BRIC's "Korean Researchers Who Shine the World"
We are proud to announce that Prof. Kim has been selected for the prestigious "Korean Researchers Who Shine the World" (ํ๋น์ฌ, Hanbitsa) by the Biological Research Information Center (BRIC). This distinguished recognition honors his corresponding authorship on the groundbreaking study titled "Photocrosslinkable injectable glycol chitosan/gelatin biohybrid thermogel as a localized delivery platform for bone regeneration," recently published in the world-renowned journal Carbohydrate Polymers (Impact Factor: 13.2, JCR 0.9%). In this work, the research team engineered an advanced injectable, dual-crosslinkable biohybrid thermogel platform that establishes a pro-osteogenic microenvironment to achieve targeted and functional bone tissue regeneration. We extend our warmest congratulations to Prof. Kim and the entire research team for this high-impact achievement and for advancing our departmentโs leadership in biomimetic materials and translational regenerative medicine!
2026.08.18 ๐ New Publication Announcement: Accepted in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (TERM)
We are pleased to announce that our latest research paper has been officially accepted for publication in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (TERM) (Impact Factor: 5.1)!
Title: Endothelial and Mesenchymal Stem Cell Balance Regulates Vascularization and Osteogenic Differentiation in Co-culture Spheroids
Authors: Sujin, Jinwoo, Chaerin, and Mina
Journal: Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (IF: 5.1)
This study elucidates how the cellular balance between endothelial and mesenchymal stem cells orchestrates vascularization and osteogenic differentiation within 3D co-culture spheroid systems, offering valuable insights for vascularized bone tissue engineering.
A huge congratulations to Sujin, Jinwoo, Chaerin, and Mina on this well-deserved achievement! We applaud their hard work and dedication to advancing our research.
2026.08.09 Congratulations! We are thrilled to announce that our research paper titled "Photocrosslinkable injectable glycol chitosan/gelatin biohybrid thermogel as a localized delivery platform for bone regeneration" has been officially accepted for publication in Carbohydrate Polymers (Impact Factor 13.2, JCR 0.9%). This paper highlights a novel photocrosslinkable and injectable biohybrid thermogel platform engineered for targeted bone tissue regeneration. Huge congratulations to Seungeun Kim for her outstanding dedication as the first author, and to Prof. Hwan Kim for his visionary guidance as the corresponding author! This remarkable high-impact achievement is a testament to the hard work and excellence of our laboratory.
2026.07.14 Congratulations! Professor Hwan Drew Kim has been selected for the prestigious "Korean Researchers Who Shine the World" (Hanbitsa, BRIC). This recognition honors his groundbreaking research paper, titled "Synergistic Wnt/BMP Co-activation accelerates osteogenic differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells via paraxial mesoderm induction," which was published in the Journal of Tissue Engineering (Impact Factor 10.1, JCR 7.8%). His work demonstrates how the precise, concurrent activation of Wnt and BMP signaling accelerates osteogenic differentiation in human pluripotent stem cells through paraxial mesoderm induction, offering a critical foundation for advanced bone tissue engineering and stem cell-based regenerative therapies.ย
2026.07.01 Congratulations, Huge congratulations to Sujin on having her first-author paper accepted in the Journal of Tissue Engineering (IF 10.1, JCR 7.8%)! The title of her work is 'Synergistic Wnt/BMP Co-activation Accelerates Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Pluripotent Stem Cells via Paraxial Mesoderm Induction.' I am incredibly proud of her hard work and hope she keeps up the fantastic momentum moving forward.
2026.06.25 Welcome! We have 6 newcomers to our lab. Please welcome again, Sieun Lee, Young Kwang Yoon, Jeyoung Hwang, Hyang-Ah Choi, Subin Jung, and Ayeong Jang.
2026.03.01 Congratulations to Prof. Hwan Drew Kim for receiving an 'Early Career Researcher Program (Type B) Grant' supported by the NRF. Prof. Kim will receive a total of โฉ750,000,000 (equivalent to 750,000 USD) over the next 60 months as the research topic of 'Establishment of a Human Bone Organoid Platform Integrated with Neuro-Vascular Networks for Advanced Biomimicry and Elucidation of Bone MEtabolic Mechanism'
2026.03.01 We just finished filming our new department's intro video! Please check it out and show us some love.
