We are thrilled to announce that Dr. Minseok Bae has joined our team as a new staff scientist. Dr. Bae brings a wealth of valuable industrial experience from his previous role at Saudi Aramco. 

His initial research will focus on system demonstration and economic feasibility assessment, adding a crucial new dimension to our lab's capabilities. 

Please join us in giving him a very warm welcome.

We are excited to welcome four new members to our team this fall. 

Please join us in giving a warm welcome to Dr. Jounghwan Choi (Postdoc), Mario Caesar Arrahman (MS student), Ju Young Kim (MS student), and Jae Eun Lee (BS intern). 

We look forward to their valuable contributions and wish them the best in their research endeavors with us. 

We held a farewell party to our valued members: Euirim On (2022-2025), Seong Mo Yun (2025), Simon Lee (2025), and Najwa Somanjaya (2025). 

We are incredibly grateful for their dedication and significant contributions during their time with us. We wish them all the very best in their future endeavors and hope our paths cross again soon. 

Our team continued its cherished annual tradition with a picnic and photo session under the beautiful cherry blossoms. We gathered at Miraeyeon to enjoy the lovely weather and capture some great moments together. It was a wonderful opportunity to relax, connect outside of the lab, and celebrate the season as a team. 

We are proud to announce that our team has been chosen to lead the prestigious Global Top Research Lab (GTL) project on "Clean Hydrogen Storage and Utilization." funded by National Research Council of Science & Technology (NST) Korea. The project will run until August 2029 with a total budget of 85 billion KRW (61M USD). Our mission is to establish next-generation chemical hydrogen storage and utilization technologies to build a highly efficient and safe hydrogen supply chain.

Here’s a wonderful blast from the past! This photo from our spring cherry blossom gathering in 2019 is the earliest one I could find.  

This inspires us to reach out to our valued alumni: if you have any good memories from your time with us, please share them. Your contributions will help us beautifully piece together our shared history.
