Professor Gu participated in the ‘Future Energy Industry Innovation Forum’ co-hosted by Jeonnam Province and KENTECH from December 17 to 18. The forum aimed to advance ‘Energy AI’ technologies for innovation in the future energy industry. Professor Gu, along with other KENTECH professors, delivered academic presentations on AI-based energy systems, drawing significant attention. The event highlighted AI’s role in optimizing power supply, transmission, and renewable energy management.

We are proud to announce that our research lab has been honored with the Best Research Lab Award at the KENTECH Annual Research Fair 2024, a recognition of our outstanding contributions to scientific research and innovation. Our team’s excellence was further highlighted by winning 5 out of 15 Poster Awards (Taegyeong Kim, Chaesoo Shin, Youngtak Kim, Matthew Curnan, and Noor Almusleh), showcasing dedication of our researchers. This achievement reflects our commitment to advancing knowledge, fostering innovation, and driving impactful research in materials science. We thank KENTECH, the review committee, and our collaborators for their support, and we look forward to achieving even greater milestones ahead.

We recently gathered for a memorable group dinner, celebrating our collective achievements, shared goals, and the friendships that drive our research forward. This event was a wonderful opportunity to step away from the lab, enjoy each other’s company, and reflect on the progress we’ve made together. We’re excited for what lies ahead and grateful for the camaraderie that strengthens our work every day!

Our team recently enjoyed a rejuvenating retreat at the renowned onsen resort in Jaechun. It was a wonderful opportunity to relax, connect, and gain fresh perspectives in a serene setting. Between insightful discussions and soaking in the hot springs, we returned with renewed energy and inspiration to tackle our research challenges together. Here’s to more memorable moments and collaborative success!
