- A research team led by Professor Kyung-In Jang at DGIST has developed a flexible implantable device for brain drug delivery, which applies a pump structure inspired by human gastrointestinal motility. - Wireless control enables precise drug delivery to deep brain regions, thus opening new possibilities for treating intractable brain diseases.

- DGIST Prof. Kwon Hyuk-joon's research team developed liquid-processed thin-film transistors that can maintain high performance at low temperatures - They are expected to be used in the next generation of high-performance flexible electronics and wearable devices as they can operate on plastic substrates and maintain stable performance under repeated mechanical bending

- The team successfully developed an imperceptive surface electromyography (sEMG) sensor that can be stably used in the silicone liner within the socket of a robotic prosthetic leg - The sensor transmits electromyographic signals wirelessly in a stable manner from a walking amputee to a robotic prosthetic leg for better control - Research results were published in the prestigious academic journal npj Flexible Electronics
