Announcement: Laboratory Relocation to Sogang University
We are pleased to announce that our Lab. will be relocating to the Department of Life Science at Sogang University, effective September 1, 2025. We are also deeply grateful to Ewha Womans University for the generous support that have nurtured our research over the years.
We are incredibly excited about the new opportunities for research, collaboration, and education that this move will bring. It provides us with a valuable chance to broaden our research scope beyond Food Science, venturing into the wider fields of Life Science as well as Biotechnology. Our core research mission will continue, and we look forward to advancing our work in a new and dynamic environment.
For prospective students and collaborators, please note that all future inquiries and applications should be directed to our new affiliation at Sogang University. (bskim@sogang.ac.kr)
We thank you for your continued support and look forward to sharing our future achievements from our new home.
Sincerely,
Byoung Sik Kim, Ph.D.
Principal Investigator
& Everyone from the MSM Lab.
🎉MSM Lab Awarded New NRF Grants (Sep. 2025)🎊
Congratulations!!! 🎉😝 The MSM Lab. has been awarded a three-year grant from the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) for its Pioneering Research Program. In addition, congratulations to Ra Young, Ji Min, and Seungri on receiving the NRF Research Grant for Master's Students!
Our lab investigates molecular mechanisms of how microbes interact with humans and other microbes (including bacteriophages) to understand their life and physiological characteristics. We also develop innovative strategies for combating harmful (foodborne) pathogens and harnessing beneficial microbes. Specifically, we study microbial attack mechanisms (e.g., protein toxins and virulence factors) and host defense mechanisms (e.g., immune responses and bacteriophage resistance) using advanced approaches in molecular microbiology, microbial genetics, and cellular/biochemical research. By integrating engineering biology and systems biology, we also aim to leverage these microbial traits for beneficial applications.
