Hyun‐Young Kim

Professor Hyun-Young Kim's research lab focuses on the intersection of environmental health, biomedical materials, and regenerative medicine. The lab investigates the neurological impacts of air pollution, particularly fine particulate matter, and explores mechanisms linking systemic inflammation and oxidative stress to central nervous system disorders. In parallel, the lab develops advanced nanomaterials—such as TiO₂/Ag and TiO₂/Au composite films—for biomedical applications, including wound healing and periodontal regeneration. The team also studies diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for rare soft tissue tumors like lipoblastoma and explores natural compounds, such as safflower seed extracts, to enhance tissue regeneration.
