CI Prof. Jae Kyoung Kim recently appeared on Episode 197 of the YouTube science program 과학을 보다, where he discussed the mathematical and biological mechanisms underlying sleep and why people often feel tired in the morning.
CI 김재경 교수는 최근 유튜브 과학 프로그램 「과학을 보다」 제197회에출연하여 수면의 수학적·생물학적 메커니즘과 사람들이아침에 피곤함을 느끼는 이유에 대해 설명했습니다.
Members of BIMAG participated in the Asian Forum on Chronobiology (AFC) 2026, held at KAIST from June 10 to 12, 2026.
During the conference, CI Prof. Jae Kyoung Kim delivered a talk on wearable-based digital biomarkers for health risk prediction. Ph.D. candidate Dongju Lim and Dr. Yun Min Song presented their research through poster presentations.
AFC 2026 brought together researchers from across Asia to share recent advances in multi-scale chronobiology, spanning molecular, cellular, neural circuit, behavioral, and clinical studies, as well as digital health technologies and plant circadian biology. The conference provided a valuable opportunity for scientific exchange and collaboration among researchers in diverse fields of chronobiology.
BIMAG 멤버들이 2026년 6월 10일부터 12일까지 KAIST에서 개최된 Asian Forum on Chronobiology (AFC) 2026에참가했습니다.
이번 학회에서 CI 김재경 교수는 웨어러블 기반 디지털 바이오마커를 활용한 건강 위험 예측에 대해 발표했습니다. 또한 임동주박사과정 학생과 송윤민 박사는 포스터 발표를 통해 연구 성과를 소개했습니다.
AFC 2026은 아시아 각국의 연구자들이 한자리에 모여 분자, 세포, 신경회로, 행동 및 임상 연구를 비롯해 디지털 헬스 기술과식물 생체리듬 연구 등 다중 규모 생체리듬학 분야의 최신 연구 성과를 공유하는 자리였습니다. 이번 학회는 다양한 분야의 생체리듬 연구자들이 학문적 교류와 협력을 증진할 수 있는 뜻깊은 기회를 제공했습니다.
On June 5, 2026, at 10:00 AM CT (12:00 AM KST), Prof. Jae Kyoung Kim will give the talk “From Noise to Precision: Structural Buffering and the Law of Large Numbers as Principles for Robust Homeostasis and Rhythms” as part of the National Institute for Theory and Mathematics in Biology (NITMB) Seminar Series.
