Kim Research Group

Our comprehensive review article, entitled "Recombinant keratin: Comprehensive review of synthesis, hierarchical assembly, properties, and applications", has been published in Acta Biomaterialia. Congratulations to Suyoung Lee for leading this work, in collaboration with Dr. Mark Van Dyke (Vice Dean for Research, College of Engineering).

We are excited to announce that our research group, in collaboration with GlycoSurf, Inc. (led by Dr. Chett Boxley) and Drs. Maier and Hogan at the University of Arizona, has been awarded a NIEHS SBIR Phase II grant for the project titled “Bioinspired Green Glycolipids as Fugitive Dust Mitigation Agents”. This funding will support research to address the environmental and health challenges posed by mine dust. 

Congratulations to Matthew, a former high school researcher now studying at Cornell Engineering, for having his work on the eggshell project accepted by the Journal of Emerging Investigators. Well done, Matthew!
